[Amps] Bias Scheme

Once upon a time there was a note about using a 3055ish transistor as a 
"pass" with a low wattage zenier on the base, making it think it was a 
high power, to supply bias. Gotta pack for a trip, before I could look 
in this mess....

The 2N3055 or it could have been a TIP49, was used to act as a "relay" when the transistor was turned on.  Does anyone remember that article and have a reference point to look at?  Gee, I am not usre I've made myself clear here.
