In one of the older Editors and Engineers handbook about the 13th I think is a modulator built from the audio parts, complete speech amp, pair 811's and ART-13 modulation transformer. 110 watts to secondary of transformer. Lots of single 813 finals from this time frame could be built with the RF stuff. With some skillful hacksawing the final capacitor can be made a remountable cap. (I have two!). ART-13s are pretty tough, should still work, even if a bulldozier ran over it! LOL..Mike K4XM
