No problem, I was being "more generic" in my comparison to Collins gear... i.e. heavier duty parts, similar looking gear, similar paint scheme, etc.

Well, Im certainly not talking about a paint job since this is an amp forum 
after all. And since Im very familiar with Collins gear and all brands of amps I 
was referring to the technical features.

        I have the 2000C unit.  and Carl I have to disagree with you 
        about the Collins influence.  Ted Hunter worked for Collins and 
        located his company just across the city from Collins.. And my amp, has 
        nearly the same color scheme...maybe different circuitry, that may be 
        the difference, dont know about that. :)

          The Hunter 2000A and B were the 572 amps.
           
          The C used a pair of 3-400Z's and was a very well designed and 
          rugged kit with quality components and on the market before the 
          SB-220. There was no Collins influence apparent.
           
          While living in IL I operated at a 
          contest station that had a pair of the B models that held up well when 
          not overdriven.

                It is a simple amp, doubt that both filaments 
                  would go out at the same time..the transformer has all the 
                  windings on it, HV, filament, bias, so hope its not your 
                  transformer.. had 2 of these in the past, still have one, my 
                  primary amp, wonderful amp, built tough, similar to Collins 
                  since the designer was an engineer at Collins before he 
                  started Hunter Electronics..

                    Start with the manual and 
                    follow the circuit, its a good but very basic 
                    amp.
