[Amps] Amplifying RF

Bill and Charles,

I think that by the time you purchase all the parts, you can purchase a completely built amp,  unless you are willing to purchase in enough quantity to get the costs down.  I am not sure as to what the FCC certification is required for a complete kit,  that maybe another cost.
