But David, some of just want to be amateurs, hobbyists. We made conscious decisions
not to be professional electronics engineers. Achieving the sort of understanding that people like you have of state of the art "transistor stuff" is very hard to do. I recall when Skywave had his thread about RF voltmeters and someone modelled a FET circuit and said it showed 'negative resistance', I sighed deeply; I'd just got to grips with 'imaginary impedance'. Not everyone on the forum wants or can be a "complete electronics guy" - that's why you and others are so useful, to help us lesser mortals
.
