[AMRadio] Globe Champ 350 and HQ-170 are on the Air!

[Bernie Doran]

Great. Just keep at it. A few new relays will make it a one switch 
operation.  My first AM rig, 1955, required, move knife sw for antenna, rx 
to stby, turn on driver, turn on B+ for tx, turn on the modulator, and then 
the reverse to listen.   I was amazed when I bought my first antenna relay, 
That was before I learned that power relays work fine at RF.
