I used to have a texas star 350, and
i know a tech who says he could make it do 500
watts. I know on the toshiba data sheet it
says in one place 250 watts for the 2sc2879.
Can someone describe how the linear would
be modified to do this? |

Unless you upgrade the power feed wire and drive the **** out of it, it cannot. |

Leave it be, its doing all it can. Its more problems than the extra 100 watts is worth. |

The 350 is already squeezing all it can from a pair of 2879 transistors. If you want more, you need more than two transistors. Period.
Besides, until you get from 350 to 700 Watts, nobody will be able to tell the difference. Until you double the power you have, the S-meters on the other end won't go up enough to tell.

most S meters these days are clibrated at 6db per s unit.
that means that doubling your power output will equate to a 1/2 S unit increase.
this is true for 1 watt and for 1,000,000 watts.
so a 4x power increase will net you 1 S unit.
