[Amps] amp with push-pull output and magnetic coupling to theantenn

[pfizenmayer]

B&W actually had a swinging link version that had a 1/4 inch shaft 
connection to swing the link from the panel - and the swing arm also took a 
plug in link for various bands . The low freq link had two layers of turns 
concentric with each other . I built a pp 813 rig with the olde B&W plug in 
coils and links- damn near killed myself when one day I had turned off all 
ac - forgot to chicken stick the coil - and reached in to grab the coil and 
got knocked across room -  the plate contactor had welded shut and the 866's 
had not cooled off enough to quit rectifying yet .

Good thing is I survived and you and BET I never do or did anything that 
stupid again.
