I agree with Patrick.  Ray is putting out some pretty good gear in my
estimation.  Ray uses his units on 160 meters almost nightly and he is loud
from Ohio to Kansas.  The amp sounds crisp and clean on the RX end.  The
inside of the amp is clean and well constructed.  As far as engineering
design and practices, I wouldn't know.  Features include smooth vernier
loading and tune controls...big heavy bandswitch with the WARC bands tapped,
and the appropriate meters.  The unit is heavy and well constructed.  The
variables caps are wide spaced.  A lot has not been said about these QRO
amps here on the reflector...and I hope they do not become a target for the
critics and the naysayers.  Ray is providing great service too to his customers.

IMHO
