Rick, If you have the parts on hand, it's a shame not to use them in something. I always thought it was odd that some people collect huge amounts of parts, but never do anything with them.
I am the other way around, if I have nice parts, they scream at me to be used. A tube or transformer is a terrible thing to waste. I been working on the 811 modulator for the pair of 4D32's. Its almost done, and its time to think about what to build next... Brett N2DTS > > Brett, > > I agree and you're correct on all counts.
