Hello Mark,
I'm pretty sure I heard him say that this was his 'personal amp'.
I've built my share of high power amps, which could exceed the FCC
limits, but I don't.
Decades ago, someone once told me 'Integrity is what you do when no one
is looking', and I think it's really a good definition.
The amp builder/owner of this amp seems to be building a really solid
amp. What he does with it, is his business, not mine.

something that could be used illegally.
That being said, I am not even sure that this amplifier will be used
in this country. I do know that there are other countries that don't
have the same regulations the U.S. has.
Anyway ... This is an "Amplifier" group. I build HF amplifiers myself,
use amps others have built, and even own a few Henry amps, one being
an 8K, which can easily exceed FCC power regulations. I have learned
a lot (my goal) from all of them, including this build. Especially
this build.

Pete,
Technically, it's neat thing to follow. It is my understanding the
owner plans on using it on the air. If so, IMHO, this is just a display
of a low level of personal integrity. No way to justify it when
compared to the rules (laws).
