Sorry, the message did not go through.  Switch to "plain text" and the
message will make it to everyone.

Of course, there are those who's E-Mail client does all the message to be
read.  Unfortunately, for most of us, we just get no body of the message.

Just put a working one together from parts from two different auctions and
I'd like to find the rest of the documentation.

H-19s are pretty common, H-29s not so much so. Haven't been able to find the
docs on line anywhere.

Can someone please supply the part number or other description for the
mating power connector on the HW-8?  It looks like a 6-pin Molex of some
kind but the ones I have in the junkbox do not fit.  Thanks and 73, Mike

AND
 from 1400 UTC February 20 to 0800 UTC February 21, 2018
 (9 AM Eastern Time on Tuesday to 3 AM Eastern Time Wednesday)

Suggested Frequencies -- plus/minus QRM
Listen up and down 5 to 10 Kc for crystal controlled stations
AM   1.890 mc.     3.860 mc.     7.270 mc.     14.280 mc.     21.400 mc.

The CX is a no-pressure contest celebrating the older commercial and
homebrew equipment that was the pride and joy of ham shacks many decades
ago. The object is
to encourage restoration, operation and enjoyment of this older Classic
equipment.

However, you need not operate a Classic rig to participate in the CX. YOU
MAY USE ANY RIG in the contest although new gear is a distinct scoring
disadvantage.
You can still work the "great ones" with modern equipment.

BONUSES
Up to 2,000 point bonus will be awarded to every CX participant who operates
the same model rig as their Novice station.
Three QSOs are required.
One receiver and one transmitter may be counted and are worth 1,000 points
each. Multiple version of the same piece of gear will not increase the
bonus.

Up to 2,000 point bonus will be awarded to every CX participant who operates
a transmitter with 4 tubes and/or less or a receiver with 6 tubes or less.
Three QSOs (each) are required.

Awards will be given in two classes: 1. Three or fewer receiver-transmitter
pairs 2. Four or more receiver-transmitter pairs.

Send logs, comments, anecdotes, pictures, etc. to

e-mail: Ron K2RP       k2rp at arrl.net<mailto:k2rp at arrl.net>

E-MAIL IS (REALLY) PREFERRED BUT NOT ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY
