Supposidely these are audio amplifiers. This dude is overseas installing his hifi's into homes of the rich and famous. I don't see any performance specs, but was unable to find much in the way of tech detail period. Sort of a blend of choppers (motorcycle) and tubes.

Somehow I cannot imagine seeing a class B P-P modulator looking this way.

Looks like a prop from one of the old Flash Gordon movies.

Yep, here's the recipe:  Take some Harley builders who like chrome, mix in an audiophile who likes tubes, do a few joints and brainstorm, add some sizzle to make the un-informed drool and buy.... and you got yourself an audio amplifier business for the rich and famous, caw mawn.

Use an "AM Courtesy Filter" to limit transmit audio bandwidth  +-4.5 KHz, +-6.0 KHz or +-8.0 KHz when needed.  Easily done in DSP.
