Thanks Joe,
What I meant by complicated is more that I haven't seen a bias circuit like
that in any amateur publication. I dug through a few handbooks dating back to
76 and the only circuit close was N6CA 2c39 bias circuit but his was for the
purpose of not having to use high wattage zener diodes.
I'm sure it is a scaled version of a much higher power amplifier as ASI seems
to do some pretty big amps.
Thanks,
Paul

The bias supply is *negative* DC ... where do you expect to get it
other than a separate low voltage supply?
This bias supply is hardly complicated ... it is a scaled copy of the
circuit used in many other much bigger amplifiers/transmitters.
