[Hallicrafters] Re: HA-2/6 and Millen HV connector

[jeremy-ca]

Ten-Tec uses a Millen or clone on the Titan amp, see if they will sell you 
one.

I use a HA-6 regulary to drive a 1200W amp; the transmit path is excellent 
and has very low SSB distortion.

However the receiver is deaf by todays standards. I went the SS route under 
the chassis but an external preamp will do just fine.

Dont try fast VOX CW, the Dow Key relay they use is rather slow switching, 
set the delay appropriately.

I also have a virgin HA-6 and HA-2 with the PS and that will be set up for 
display only with the HT-32A, SX-115 station that is used for vintage SSB 
nets and general ragchewing.
