Pete,
It would be great if Dick, K4XU contributed to the list on a regular basis.
Now there's a guy who can add some value to the discussions here. I believe
he was part of some amp designs for Alpha and Ten-Tec.
Same with W4ETO, W8JI, and NA9D who were a regular part of AMPS back in the
'90s. I'll reach out to them and see if there's any interest in re-joining.
Paul, W9AC
