If my memory is correct it was called "Boomer" but was not made by Boomer, was a fairly simple 2 pill using post type transistors instead of the 2 screw flange type. If you can't find a schematic (which I doubt were even made), any common 2 pill schematic should be sufficient, the inside probably copied Palomar.

The Boomer 250 schematic is listed on cb tricks...like MD Youngblood said tho, it's not really a Boomer, just someone using the Boomer name.

Well that schematic showed me what i was curious about. There's a stud diode in it that is shorted but I can't read anything on it.

The schematic shows a 20v 5 watt Zener. So far I've only worked on Palamar 300, several different Texas Star amps, and a RM kl-500 and none of them had stud diodes.
So thanks for that it pointed me in the right direction.
