MHelin	Re: Let's do something fun Why not put some sort of small transformer on it? There ought to be something that would work. That could work provided there were an appropriate load. To emulate output amp saturation there should be quite large current. Maybe those simple line trasformers used on modems could work, they are usually 600ohm:600ohm (1:1) transformers, and could be used between collector and power line of a power transistor. Simple IC bandpass filter with large bandwidth is simpler option and allows some tweaking. -Mikko
