The TW-1000A discussed is a 1KW SSB Linear amplifier designed for 1.6 to 30 MHz
use.  The current model is called the TW-1000D and is built by the Titan division
of Datron Corporation.  Originally these units were used with the TW-100 transceiver
at American Embassies around the would.  Do a Google search for Transworld and you can
trace their history.  Many of the TW-100's are currently used by MARS stations worldwide
and some of the TW-1000A units have been obtained by MARS.  Several National Guard
units still have Transworld unit in operation.  There is a lot of info available about
this unit on the Internet if you will search for it.
