Subject: ARRL HANDBOOK   Motorola AN762

originally QST June and July 1977
ARRL HANDBOOK,   EDITION 1987
PAGE 30-32 to 30-34   (3 pages)
also shows a design of the low-pass filter

Diagram,  pictures,  layout, and page 13 shows the
printed circuit etching patterns in the back.

Not sure of the availability or current FCC legality-- I think
the FCC does not allow partial kits to discourage CB power
amplifiers.   Following is from my CCI catalog:
The AN762  is a 140 Watt HF amplifier from
CCI--  Communication Concepts, Inc
508 Millstone Dr.
Beavercreek, OH  45434-5840
937-426-8600

Also,  from the ARRL Handbook,  but the page number
and issue is not given.  I'll check in my book that is
a couple of years old.
I believe it is a partial kit and they will sell Printed 
circuit boards and components.  It looks like there are
approx.  35 components.  Power supply required is a 
13.6 vdc.
I think the Low Pass Harmonic filter is a separate but
required item.
Reference QST,  June , 2003 and the  30 watt amp.
James R. Valdes, WA1GPO,  The FARA HF Project, QST,
June, 2003,  p. 35-39.   Shows design of the low-pass filter
common to any of the Motorola amps of this type.
"The FCC has placed strict limitations on power amplifiers
used below 30 mHz."   ...Kits and partial kits.... prohibited.
