[VHFcontesting] K1WHS antique 144 rf strip

[Bruce Herrick]

Hi Bill

I have a copy of the ARRL VHF Manual dated 1965, and it has (presumably) the same transmitter in it.  There's a 6 meter version as well.  Some of that then-state-of-the-art technology is pretty interesting, especially the microwave stuff.  When's the last time you built a rig using a hydrogen thyratron?

73,

>Dave, back around 1962 as swl I made a similar rf strip out of the VHF Handbook I think, but it used a 6360 driving the pants off another 6360.  Key up, it was 10 over 9 at Hans VE3CRU 2 miles south, and 30 over 9 key down.  Put it on the shelf till Hans took it from me when I got married.  Yet to find that VHF book.  Good luck with your research.
