And you know this how? And it matters why?

But in case it does, I've been building amps since I was a teenager.
Through the years, I built a number of hf and vhf amps for friends.

Here's one I built for myself.

Its replacement with an 8877 is sitting beside me.

That's a beautiful amp, Wes. I'm curious--how did it handle Slick's
1.040807999:1 swr, from his 50+j2 load impedance?
