Is this a trick question?

Have you tried using Google?

Nope, not a trick. A friend called from Oregon said he'd see a brochure at a
music store. There are getting to be so many little guys out there that I thought
it might be a forum member. I working on yard chores, my wife's after me,
My brother in law's over and the kids were driving me to wits end,
so I didn't have a moment to Google it. Thanks for the link, back to the chores.

Andy,

I took a look 'round the site and found a "technical" paper from a couple years ago that makes it seem that his amplifier "business" was a senior project.

Still, if you can make money (or free gear) from a hobby, it's a beautiful thing.

He properly cites his sources, pentode press, and he's still at it, It takes a
long while to build a business. I've seen a few other web pages over the years
from young makers. Its easy to get jazzed over a successful project and be
able to put it out on the web. Even better if it becomes self sustaining.
I beginning to think we're a bunch of guitar loonies, trying to resurrect
light manufacture in North America.
