Dudley,

We are legally entitled to build our own HF amplifiers... Build as many as
you need for your own use.  The only restriction is the number of HF
amplifiers that we can build for OTHERS...

73, Larry - W1GOR

Ken,

So you're saying if I build an amp for my HF QRP rig, it is illegal??   I
don't think that is the intent of Part 97..  Even if I use some commerically
available parts?

Thanks and 73's,
Dudley

If the amp is NOT type accepted and comes from a manufacture then they are
not illegal to us in the USA.  If they can take a four watts input and put
500 watts to an antenna they are made for CB.  If you want to use this amp
you may lose your ham ticket.

If you do not want to live by part 97, maybe you are in the wrong hobby.

  I'm not so sure if it's illegal or not. If so, then Emtron, JRC, and
several
  others are illegal, but they get sold in the USA. I dont think they would
be
  so popular if they were illegal. I'll e-mail THP co and find out. And if
they
  meet spectral purity requirments and are operated properly by a licensed
  amateur, then there should be no problem. After all, you are allowed to
build one a
  year yourself without type acceptance, and some of those may turn out way
  dirtier than a professionally made one. 73.
