This is going to be a wild one. Short skip on all HF bands here as well as to Western USA. I don't think any record will survive this one. All dressed up and nowhere to go for the next 4:10 GL 73 Ed
Well, it's been 48 years, but as I remember it, the 6AG7 was a metal covered tube commonly used in BC radios at that time. About 4 inches tall, 3 grids, cathode, plate and heater. Now surely, someone
Yep, 3 element job. Think it belonged to ON4UN. Was written up in some mag. Seem to remember that the tips of the full size elements only sagged about 4" from the center. Think the thing was lowered
I picked up one of these locally a couple of days ago, and installed it. ( after first trying to ram it into a PCI slot ) Win98SE picked up the new monitor and card, but both monitors are displaying

Fellows, again many thanks for all your tips. The G-450 is up and running and working like a charm. Only thing is, I'm afraid to shut off the computer now. A couple messages asked for a summary. The
