I can solder. How would I add negative feedback across the transistors?

Thanks for your responses! I'm mainly using the amp on am. I discovered that one side of the variable capacitor (thanks for the correction!) Was not even soldered to the output transformer (again, thanks for the correction!), would that possibly affect the "crunchy" sound it has on the air? And...

Btw, here area couple pictures of the Palomar 225...

I have a Golden Eagle 150 linear amp that appears to be completely"stock" and in good condition, but I have been told that my signal sounds louder, but "crunchy" when I am on the air. Does anyone know what would cause this? Also, what is the variable resistor attached to the choke on the center...

I recently aquired a Palomar 225 linear amp (has black label & 2 MRF 455 pwr transistors, not blue label). It has a burnt (so badly I can't read the value) 2 or 3 watt resistor right next to the transmitter input. Does anyone know of a schematic for the amp? Or what other components maybe...
