[Amps] Dummy Load Blues

[Rob Atkinson]

I have seen Carborundum DL "kits" (four resistors, clip bars to hold
them) at fests for $50 or less.
I purchased a used broadcast tx DL kit of four or five resistors last
year for $20.  Not everyone has $200 to spend on a dummy load.

Also, you actually build something.   For some people a DL is a nice
starter project.
