MACO 300 AMATURE 7 TUBE LINEAR HELP!
Well got a Maco 300 but all 7 tubes were broken in delivery. I don't know what they were or which ones go where. Anyone able to help! This was nice until the post office dropped it. HELP Ron

Google "MACO 300". That should turn up some schematics and maybe a manual.

Will give it a try. Thanks Ron

I doubt very much that is an amplifier made for the "amateur" market. 10m maybe, but looks like something made more for the CB band.

I think its for 10 meter. Could use a set of tubes as all were broken in shipping. Thanks Ron

It's a plain and simple CB amp.

Sorry, I have to agree with 'KNY2ADQ', that thing isn't and has never been a "ham amplifier" no matter what's printed on the front of it. The design has been around almost forever and wasn't a very good design when new. The only reason for multi-tube amplifiers like this was the cost of the tubes. Since they aren't exactly a dime-a-dozen any more, it's a sort of silly way of going about it, you know?
I hope you get the thing running...
