Any AMPLIFIED D-104 will drive the ART13 with no problem at all. You can also use any small preamp To drive it. They sound fantastic when you do the audio mods on them...

I am interested in your 160m mod for the LF unit as I have both, do you have that to hand as I would like to operate top band using this radio. I also have a BC-610 but that is another story. I found that in the dynamic position you have to have a small preamp to get full mod, if you run it right with a carbon mic and get the plate needle to kick upto 200 mills then the mod is 99%. I have had very good success with my ART-13 and get around 90 - 120w of carrier which is about right, I have had QSO's Stateside from the UK using this and an inverted V doublet. I also run a couple of computer fans sucking the air OUT of the rear of the transmitter, keeps it happy that way, also acts as a very good room heater on these cold mornings hihi. Good luck and get it on the air soon. 73 Max M0GHQ > > Along with the group here, I'd suggest the milsurplus list as a source > of info, parts, and so on.
