-  I have some diagrams with explanations for sub-assemblies used in 
high-power, high-gain RF amplifiers.  The url is:
http://www.vcnet.com/measures
This is mostly the (rejected) material that was written for the 1995 
Handbook.  
-  I do not publish 100% complete, detailed plans for building such 
machines.  If I did, constructing one would seemingly not be much of a 
learning experience.  However, with the information provided, it should 
be possible to construct a stable Class AB1 Linear amplifier that will, 
if needed,  push the SSB-limit of RG213 coax at 14MHz - without producing 
 X-rays.  ... ... ... And if something doesn't initially make sense to 
someone, I can probably explain it on the telephone.

It is not substantively more difficult to build a tiny amplifier than to 
build an un-tiny amplifier.  IMO, tiny amplifiers are more boring to 
design and build.  In terms of dollars per kW, un-tiny amplifiers are the 
Best Buy.
