Yes, I did one back in 2003. I used the technique of stepping down the plate
impedance with a small inductor so I could use the original tune and load
capacitors. Homebrewed a new tank coil, plate choke and filament choke and
installed a pi-net impedance matching circuit in the input. I have some pix I
will send anyone who is interested. Works like a charm.
