Total time to install and have it operational is about 20 minutes with the longest time being the removal of all the screws from the bottom of...

    Anyone know anything about the amps selling

    on Ebay for an Israeli whose call I think is 4Z4RB? I know they are not type accepted but that is no big deal if the design is good and the thing does not have signal flying off on every frequency but the one it is intended for. I know very little about transistor amps so I thought I would...
