Here is W3R at the Radio History Society Saturday evening, with Bruce WR3Q making a transmission on 75 meters with a 1950 Collins 32V2. Our receiver is a military 1966 R-390A.
The broadcast transmitter, a 1951 Collins 300-G, is shown being test-run into a dummy load at full power. We had completed tuning up the oscillator and amplifier stages a short while earlier. Rig works great! http://www.netohio.com/wa3vjb/DSC02199.JPG The Heavy Metal Rally had been mentioned in two newspapers, the museum's newsletter, a broadcast engineering reflector, a local radio-TV blog, and in emails to local ham clubs. About 30 visitors stopped by during the museum's open house to see and hear the "Heavy Metal" station, and photographers showed up for three or four newspapers. More details later. W3R is good on qrz.com for the confirmation certificate. Regards to all, Paul/VJB __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
