Well fellows,
The pic on QTH, fronts not bad and I'm a sucker for black wrinkle
paint/rack-n-panel stuff.
I just looked at the pictures for the first time. Someone said it was
'filthy and dirty' - not from what *I* can tell...

Although the advertised 750 watts might be stretching things a little.
ya think? ;-)
Good iron will make this a 24/7 500 watt rig. Minus; no exciter, gotta add
maybe a Johnson Ranger.
I'd think something a little more "modern", like some rice-box and a
pair of T/R relays to go from TX to RX on the rice-box with better
sensitivity/selectivity (if you have one) and 10w on most little rigs is
plenty conservative enough, plus the added benefit of a digital read-out
VFO...
So here it is a full legal limit 1500 PEP output boatanchor, keep the fingers
crossed the iron is gud. Just add elbow grease.
*IF* it's -that- dirty. Heck, some of the stuff I operate in my shack,
don't look as clean as the front of this rig, and I'm told it works
-well- ;)
