Anthony and Mark:

I browsed through the WM5Z amplifier page and think
it is nicely done.

I want to point out that at that power level you really
should be using diplexers to dissipate the harmonic
energy, just as the writeup indicates.  But to design
them the   *easy*   way, go get this program:

It is an easy to use and interactive Windows program.
A nice thing about it is that you can tweek the parts
and use what you have in terms of nearly-correct
values and see what effect that will have.

Also note that "Meter" the meterscale drawing 
program is on that site (no longer on QSL.net):
