[Steve Katz] Low cost, 500W and solid-state multiband don't go
together very well in the same sentence. I'd go for the Ameritron 600W SS
amp for 1.8-30 MHz, and two separate 160W amps for 50 and 144 MHz, possibly
the TE Systems units. Total investment would be lower than homebrewing,
unless one has an awfully well stocked junkbox. -WB2WIK/6
