Rick--

       What does a General class operator intend to do with a modified 
amplifier that runs 4 KW+  input anyway?  Judging from the callsign, my guess is 
that he intends to run it from a 120 VAC wall plug.

       Obviously Rick hasn't the foggiest idea of what he is talking about.  
This is one of the dangers, both to Amateur radio and his person, of 
inexperienced people playing with things they know nothing about.

       Perhaps this is some of the great technological treasure trove that 
W5YI was talking about bringing into ham radio through his NO-CODE program.
