Hi Ralph,

The two racks that stand behind me in that photo is a Collins FRT-24 that includes a Collins T-440 with an Eimac 4-1000A as the final, runs 3 - 30 MC with 10 channel autotune originally built for the US Navy in the 1950s.  While I use this TX almost exclusively on RTTY, the TX is also capable of high speed CW and AM using a a pair of Eimac 4-400A s as the modulator.  I got this TX from Dick, W3CRO SK, a RTTY pioneer, when he got out of ham radio in 1974.
