Many modern solid state transmitters have no "coils", per se, except
perhaps in the output low pass filter or output matching network. The

hunk o' rock) and amplified in broadband stages.


More like a switch mode power supply than a crystal oscillator, (the way I
visualize a modern AM transmitter without large coils.)

Are such used by radio amateurs?
