[Elecraft] High Tech verses Classic

[Jay Kobelin]

Circa 1961 .....Sort of looks like my old BC 610E, BC342, the audio box for the carbon mike and that unbelievable antenna tuning unit. I worked some guys on 75AM about 10 miles away with that setup using a coat hanger for antenna. Those tuning produced the worst CW tone .. Wound up feeding it with a Heath VF1....it worked. Ahhhh the old 250TH glowing in the dark.....and the unbelievable TVI one could imagine
