[Jukebox-list] AMI JAH 200 and JBH 120

I only have one bottom plate and it has the same schematic as the one in the
manual. At first glance it looks to be the simpler of the two amps but I
will have to examine it a bit closer to be sure. The more complex amp has
about 10 or 15 electrolytic caps whereas the simple one only has 2. There
are more differences in the wiring but that's the easiest to explain.
