Jerry,

That is a very interesting article.  10 years ago you could have bought 
most of the components at Radio Shack.  I just had a quick look at the 
j. W. Miller line....Winding toroids seem to be the way to go now.  Now 
to find that switch you used.  Only commenting.   What you have said 
makes sense to me (a network security person) My Dad was the mostly self 
taught audio guy (Thanks to WWII).
