Unfortunately Bob, it lacks a modulator. Its pretty much a CW rig. It is
nicely built though.

Some needs to go get this in Ohio before those machine-turned panels
overcome my better judgment. I can't even guess how many hours were put
into them alone:

Finals are missing - with that style base whaddya think, maybe a pair of
211s? The placard shows dial settings for 80 thru 10 meters, including
15, so that would date it after 1952.
Panels, matched meters, quality components - it's obvious whoever built
this transmitter was a master craftsman; it' certainly deserves to be
put back on the air. Vade retro me, Satana!
