My first 6M rig was a HB with an 829B with 6L6 modulators back in 1958 at 
the peak of Cycle 19. With a Handbook 4 el it worked all over from W6 to 
Ireland, Rhodesia, and a few other DX who had the band back then.
My 6M transverter, a slightly modified Hallicrafters HA-6 uses the 5894, an 
updated 829B. And that drives the engineering prototype NCL-2000 I converted 
to 6 in 1964. Im not big into buying the latest and usually far from the 
greatest things on the market.
