The parts list should include the values for the input PI section used on 160 meters. Does anyone have a parts list for GLA-1000C (and if you have an actual amplifier, be willing to photograph more closely the tank circuit components)?

If you have one of the "C" series amps and would be willing to take some pictures of the amp (cover off, focus area on the tank circuits), I'd be grateful. I'd like get a sense of how they rearranged the output tank circuit to accommodate the (presumably) larger tank circuit coil, and if the plate tuning capacitor (which appears to have some extra C switched in for 160 based on the schematic) differs from the earlier generation versions.
