Bob, Glad you got the equipment. I too have a Viking II and a National receiver. The National is a 173 and it still has the original caps in it. The Viking was also partially restored, and I finished it and put it on the air. When I get time, usually on the weekend, I am generally on 75 on 3880-3890 in the early afternoon and evening. Look forward to working you....
