There was a guy, well known but I can't remember the name, something like
"Jo Emmings", who wrote a number of articles about fairly unusual amplifiers.
He either worked for Eimac or Varian, or a company that made vaccuum
variables. The articles I've seen were in CQ, in the late fifties.


Who had the Caddy with the Collins S-Line complete with 30-S1 mobile?

No, as someone pointed out, it was Jo Jennings.

I do recall an article in "73", I think in that giant November 1972 issue,
about someone running a kilowatt from a fancy car. But I remember it
as being a KWM-1 (though maybe he was showing an earlier version) and
a Heathkit amplifier.

Memory also says that article was by Don Miller, the SSTV guy not
the DXpeditioner.
