Just FYI -- assuming you mean a linear for Amateur Radio use and NOT CB use
in case u didn't know
Well for Amateur Radio, some linears do NOT cover the WARC bands and trying
to horse it to 12, 17 and 30M can be dicey.
In some cases -- may blow up the amp. Mods for WARC operation can be very
complicated.

You will get a better response to WTB Linear Amplifier if you specify bands
and power and have a Ham license.

Linears modified for 10M should be sold to Amateur Radio Operators only with
a valid FCC license.

From FCC Rules -- Part 95 - Sec. 95.411 (CB Rule 11) May I use power
amplifiers?

(a) You may not attach the following items (power amplifiers) to
your certificated CB transmitter in any way:
(1) External radio frequency (RF) power amplifiers (sometimes called
linears or linear amplifiers); or
(2) Any other devices which, when used with a radio transmitter as a
signal source, are capable of amplifying the signal.
(b) There are no exceptions to this rule and use of a power
amplifier voids your authority to operate the station.
(c) The FCC will presume you have used a linear or other external RF
power amplifier if--

[[Page 537]]

(1) It is in your possession or on your premises; and
(2) There is other evidence that you have operated your CB station
with more power than allowed by CB Rule 10, Sec. 95.410.
(d) Paragraph (c) of this section does not apply if you hold a
license in another radio service which allows you to operate an external
RF power amplifier.
