Lol, it's going to take a lot of work to get it where it needs to be.

This guy thinks he knows how to build amplifiers...
Seems ok so far? It gets better..
Clean signal into amp...
Nasty carrier? WTF!!!!
Nasty splatter..
This has been a public service announcement...
I would love to buy that amp case you can keep all that other junk i been trying to find someone to build me a case like that
You know with a little work you could make a real decent smoker out of it.
Build a fire box off to the side and a long stove pipe to cool the smoke, add a couple of dampers to control the air flow, and some stainless steel racks.......

Resurrecting old thread - I wonder if this is same builder?
*update decided not to pursue it lady said when asked the wattage and how many pills - it has one big pill and does 65 watts. Ermmmm firstly I've not heard of a "big" pill and 65 watts isn't really that large. I must be missing something. There was a Texas ranger 10m radio similar to a connex 3300 from bout 10 years ago w ssb, a decent triple meter and small power supply but I only wanted the package to flip the amp and radio and power supply keep the meter. But no ones gonna want a 65 watt 1 pill base amp almost the size of my 4 pill base box in the day and age of cheap kl203s. Plus I still have no idea what a "big" single pill is.

Years ago when radio's were mostly lower powered amp builders like X-Force, Magna Force, Davemade, Fatboy and so on all would build a 1 pill driver amp. Usually either a 2290 or 2879. Now there are so many powerful radios to choose from you don't need a driver amp.
I used to run a Uniden 122xl into a class B Magna Force 100 (single 2290 final). It was an easy setup to install and would bump my power from like 12-14 watts to right at 80.

I had a pc122 and sold it. Regretted that for a long time. Those are sweet SSB rigs.
