[Amps] T'bolt and Desk KW

[John T. M. Lyles]

The Junkston Thunderbolt is rather lightweight in performance, 
although heavy in mass. It runs the plate voltage low and runs 1 kW 
'input'. However, it is completely tunable over the HF range (even 
out of ham bands). The Desk KW is heavyweight in mass and has more 
features than T'bolt, such as the build in high level plate modulator 
with pair of 810s. Much more iron in it. AMers are envious.
