If you're running significant power, magnetic components in a strong RF
field will change the distribution of flux; the magnetic component may
overheat, it may encourage corona effects at certain points (that a
non-magnetic component wouldn't). Possibly not an issue at lower powers,
but an important issue at high power.

Please explain WHY magnetic screws are 'inappropriate' for amp building?
