[AMPS] CB amps on ham bands?

[William Fuqua]

I am seeing a number of "CB" solid state amplifiers being sold on ham 
reflectors now days.
These are advertised to be useful from 2 to 30 MHz. One example is an ad 
for a Palomar #225 that I saw.
However, many hams do not realize that these do not have output harmonic 
filters incorporated in them
for the various ham bands. I expect that they produce serious harmonic 
output if they are used on the
lower ham bands if used with QRP rigs.   I suspect that the ads are really 
targeting CB'ers.
