I was given an amp called a Blue Thunder several years ago. There were no papers in the box, not anything actually. Does anyone know anything about this amp? Who made it? Drive it with how much wattage?? What is the story on this?

If it's the one I'm thinking of it's nearly identical to the Boomer 250 other than the steel toggles. Drive would be 1.5w carrier and 10-30w peak input. Amperage draw about 25a.

Thanks. Maybe I'll run it on the 5 watt side of the HTX 100 and check total output with a Bird.
