Re:The Magnetic Amplifier – A Lost Technology of the 1950s by bilegeek on Thursday June 18, 2020 @12:56AM (#23559910)
I've heard of these before; they are very cool. The only problem, as far as I've seen, is a smaller frequency range and lower gain compared to tubes or transistors. Not crazy smaller or lower, but don't expect a single magnetic ham radio amplifier to get you from 160m to 10m at 1.5kW legal limit.
