I'm selling a friend's BlackCat 1000W HF Linear Model JB2000/10-80
(3-500Z Tubes) that was manufactured in or near 1976. Unit is strapped
for 120v operation.

Some pics - http://www.vambo.org/pictures/BlackCat/

I've recaped the unit with higher quality electrolytics and replaced the
HV diode stack with diodes of higher voltage and current ratings. I've
also installed a 20ma relay keying circuit in place of the automatic
power detection circuit. The tubes are the original and *may* need
replacing but it still was able to produce over 400watts of AM power with
acceptable harmonics. One of the tubes looks gassy when under load and
was removed.

I'm not going to try and tell you this is not a POS but it is a working
linear that has been rebuilt that has some life left. It's a great way to
put yourself into a linear cheaply. I will not ship this unit but I am
willing to help deliver on the front range of Colorado or part way for
the surrounding area. $200

So?

It's a multi-band amplifier. In order to tune the full width
of the lower bands, the variable capacitor(s) have to vary enough
that at 10meters they will tune more than the 10meter band. It
doesn't need an 11meter band position.

What you need to look at is what other information was provided.
Like is it a known ham manufacturer? It's not. That's the giveaway.

FT101 by yaesu has a 11m band switch yet it's not illegal nor have I
heard of the FCC busting hams who own them. Wawasee Electronics built
allot of ham gear in it's time so under your definition, it's name brand
defines it's legitimacy.

Being that this amp is also listed in qrz, the seller is obviously a ham.

The guy has a legit piece of ham gear even if it were *explicitly*
capable of 11m operation. The question is if nospam would sell it to a
non-ham against FCC 97-317.
