I recently purchased a SuperStar 200 linear and I have 2 questions.

The 1st question is : When I hook the linear up it acts as thou there is no
antenna connected unless the preamp is turned on. any suggestions as to
what it could be??


The 2nd question is : I want to stack my pills on this linear and am not sure as to how high I can actually go, I would like to add 2 - 4 more pills of the same size and type to the unit. any suggestions would be appreiciated.

Thanks in advance...

i would check to see if the board and the circuitry could handle it, ie: drive and cooling.

thanks Warlord I checked it and added 4 pills 2 more 100 watts and 2 50 watts the linear is now producing 600 peak watts and when I test it with my Galaxy DX959 With my modulator kit turned on I'm swinging 775 - 800 watts depending on wheter I'm on AM or SIDEBAND

hey, guardogg, glad it worked out so well! i would consider putting a cooling fan over the heat sink to keep it cool during long keydowns. i am interested in your work on this, how about a pic or two. thanks.
