Actually, I believe the FCC rules do limit the number you can build to one
per year. They don't say anything about the disposisiton.

§97.315 Certification of external RF power amplifiers.

(a) No more than 1 unit of 1 model of an external RF power amplifier capable
of

operation below 144 MHz may be constructed or modified during any calendar
year by an

amateur operator for use at a station without a grant of certification. No
amplifier capable

of operation below 144 MHz may be constructed or modified by a non-amateur
operator

without a grant of certification from the FCC.
