[Johnson] T'bolt afterburner for AM

Thunderbolt is rather anemic, with regards to output. It is a 1 kW input-rated amplifier, and the output is approx 600 watts before it runs out of steam. I have one here at work, used for various tests, and it was hard pressed to get much over 600. The fact that it can be driven into AB2 helps. If it is run full throttle on AM, add a fan outside the cabinet, to help cool the 4-400As.
