company
Palomar amplifiers have been made by multiple companies over the years and the name became synonymous with CB type linear amplifiers. But while the name was put on many different amplifiers the quality and capabilities of the amplifiers could vary greatly.
The original founders of Palomar Electronics have now passed away, including Sam Lewis Jr. Eric Lewis has now taken charge of the company and will eventually move all of the past product brands his family created to return to the Palomar Brand name. Some of those names include Powerband, Magnum, and RF Limited.
