[Boatanchors] Amplifier window

[Mark Foltarz]

  My Gates 1J has only glass for viewing the finals and modulators. No screen
in this 1955 bc xmtr.

  Oddly enough, the the ports for viewing the modulators are only two inch
holes. While the glass area of the viewing area for viewing the RF finals are
much bigger.
