Can anybody suggest a schematic for a simple and inexpensive RF (from 1.8 MHz to 30 MHz) linear power amplifier
that accepts 5W as input and produces let's say 100W as output ?

Motorola EB-63 or AN-762.

They don't come much simpler than that....

You should consider the openHPSDR "Munin".

Alberto,
Check out the Juma PA100 amplifier schematics, online at
http://www.nikkemedia.fi/juma-pa100/pa100.html
Great little amp for 5W in, 100W out. Solid. I use it regularly.

Power Transistors also glow just they don't last long! Hi

Hi Alberto I seem to recall Far Circuits at one time offered a kit for the Motorola application note 100 watt hf amplifier ,a picture  is shown in fig.2.108 its about 80 - 100 bucks to build not exactly cheap.

While they don't do detailed kits Communications http://www.communication-concepts.com/

has the materials to make many of the Motorola amps.  They supply parts and their board is better than
the far circuits version (plated through holes and all).  However this is nto heathkit, it assumes you can take a pile of parts and assemble using schematic and EB (engineering bulletin ).

Look at what they offer.  I'm sure there are other places that have similar as well.

Many thanks indeed to all who offered suggestions and/or pointers, very appreciated.
Now I have a wealth of references to ponder on.

I just need to give some boost to the new DUO QRP transceiver when using it at home.
