         I just joined this group, so this may have been hashed out in the 
past -- suggest you take a look at http://www.k0bg.com/ there are good 
articles there.  Note especially the "Amps & Stuff" article where it 
mentions amps like the Metron, Ten -Tec, Ameritron, etc.  Once you see one 
that you think would work, try looking for it on eBay or any of the ham 
auction sites.  You just might get lucky!
