Milcom? Do you mean Micom? Otherwise a picture might start the ball rolling...

Vocom became Crescend, Crescend then acquired Milcom which i think was part of Powerwave.

See link below

Anyway combining those two amps together to give you a full 200W output will be tricky.

I don't think you would get a full 200W. You would need some kind of combiner that will
keep them both in phase. You may want to keep an eye out for some of those older
Milcom amps on ebay that have been stripped of amp stages with the combiners still
intact in the amp cabinet.

Sorry - that is not the kind of info I keep track of but they will be
similar to the ebay item number: 200589442670 and 200589176382
that are for sale now. Ebay may be your only source as I don't know
where else to seek them.
