If I remember the article it was a way to split the power so he didnt have
excessive coil heating. Nothing radical. These were mounted across the rear
of the Packard on the top of the rear cowl.

What do you do with 75M phased verticals on a Packard? Must have been a long
Packard.

Yes he did Phil, he had Eimac create a water cooled tetrode or him.
Also a KW amp with a transformerless PS.
And phased 75M verticals on his old Packard convertible in the 50's.
He was rather creative to say the least but he had the money to play with.
