Comments:

Worked on digging out my old FCP from under fallen branches and frozen ground
and the big variable vacuum cap was shattered inside.   Got everything working
and piped the radiator in which was my 40m Zepp antenna repurposed as a flat-top
Marconi.

More testing needs to happen, but I was able to make some QSOs and it happily
took power.

Moved to this configuration after blowing up Amp #2's 160m LPF trying to run
power on 160m with the 40m Zepp and a tuner.   Hope to not do that again.

Band was noisy.  Was fun to mess around for ~1 hour.
