Yeah, I remember the radio station in my home 
town in country Western Australia in the early 
70's. The station, 6NA on 918kHz used 833As in 
the AWA transmitter for modulator and finals. 
(807 Oscillator and 813 buffer) My uncle, 
VK6XW,  was station engineer. I remember seeing a 
few pulls in the spares cupboard that were all silvered over like that.

The pics of that 4-1000A brought back the memory.

73, Alek
