ANYone know ---
will I hurt the amp if I have nothing plugged into the input jacks of the effects loop & use it for a volume boost?
guitar to amp
amp's effects loop in & out vol. set to 6
when I need a boost, I depress the "effects" button on my amp's footswitch
and presto

pro tube Twin-Amp

thanks~

You Should be fine. Rivera actually advertises this feature on some of their amps. I actually do the same with a modded Mesa F-50 Head. It's no different from adding a volume boost pedal to the chain.
