To me it looks like there are a bunch of 6L6's in the mod deck kinda like the Globe King... It has to be AM and CW and well worth the $$$ if nothing more than parts...

One would certainly expect to see at least modulator plate meters on a rig like this, and there are two unmarked meters on the top panel, one with a 500ma scale. And if you look at the power supply on the bottom of the rack, there seems to be a lot of iron there, plus four tubes with plate caps visible behind the perforated metal screen. Yet the seller, who obviously knows nothing about it, but makes reference to a "very heavy transformer that goes with it". Seems to me there's more stuff here than would be needed for a CW rig. 73, Bob W9RAN __________________________________________________ ____________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] t/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [email protected] with the word unsubscribe in the message body. ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [email protected] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
