[Amps] Parasitic suppressor resistors - think film OK?

[Carl]

Thos resistors need big heat sinks Pete.

The simple way out is to use 5W MOX resistors and add a bit of C to 
cancel the XL. I designed a PC board last year for the Clipperton L and 
should have a 3-500 version soon. Dead bug construction works also!

Simple and cheap....just like me<G>
