The BTI amplifier at the NQ4I Multi-Multi would glow red in normal
operation. Granted, it wasn't a cherry red, but a definite dull red when
keyed down.

I believe it used a 4-1000A.

NQ4I got rid of it this year. It worked great in CW contests, but for
some reason never seemed to surive SSB contests.
