I had one around 1960 driving a pair of 811A's. It was wide as a barn of course but I wrked a lot of DX with it using a Hornet TB-500 tribander and NC-57C receiver.. 73, John, W4NU K4JAG (1959 to 199

There was a article in the June 1953 QST Page 47, that used a BC-457 as a high level mixer into the 1625's to get on 40 meter SSB from 4 MHZ. On Page 47 there is a diagram for the W2JJC SSB exciter u

Hi, Mike Well, I don't remember just where I got the plans for mine, but it worked great. The T-19 was the 3-4 MHz Navy version, in a black wrinkle finish enclosure. Those were amazing radios! Amazin

Hi, Carl Well I never could have afforded anything as fancy or expensive as a Viking 1 or HQ-129 in those days. My first ham receiver was a 4-tube Heathkit AR-3, equipped with the QF-1 Q Multiplier a

Hi Charlie, The HT-32 project took place at a TV station where I worked. They had a well equipped work shop at the transmitter site. I had some idle time each work day to build and test. Great on bui

Hi, Carl Well, you have good taste in radios and music! Don't thing it was Ike Turners' rendition of "Rocket 88" that the DJs were playing in the bars and "boogie joints" that I frequented. It was a

There were a lot of those rigs around in the years following WW II, when there still was a "Radio Row"! And a BC-348 is a BIG step up from an S38C. I had the use of one for a while. Long, long ago! 7
