That AF-54 and AF-67 you used to have Dave is as close as you will find in a 
small package; you'll just have to live with 1 tube. The Heath SB, Drake, 
National, Swan, etc, PS can be easily adapted to it.
Spend a little time improving the audio and either will sound like 100+ 
watts.

Another old BA is the Harvey Wells TBS-50 or the T-90
