The ARRL Handbook in years past has printed a lot of schematics with
4-1000s, and you may be able to liberate some ideas.  That's a good place
to start your research.

If you come up completely dry, I can dig around -- but you've come to the
right place for answers.

P.S. If you find yourself contemplating the "big honkin' TO-3 zener diode
for bias" idea, email me and I'll find Rich Measures' _better_ idea that
uses a 2n3055 or similar transistor instead of that unobtainium-plated
50-watt zener.
