This page shows a modulation xfrmr from an audio amp modulating a PA final
xistor--if that is difficult it is, if not--it is not... this is only a
simple drawing--but yeah, it is pretty much like that...

Warmest regards,

wondering if I will be able to tell the difference!

| are using simple line level transformers run "backwards")...

| You can also construct an audio amplifier whose output power final

the
