[JMS] Two Millen books posted

[JAMES HANLON]

Greg,

I have an NTX-30/NSM pair on the air in case you need any help.  They both came to me from Bill Fizette of the AWA.  The NTX had belonged to John Nagle and before that to Gene Sims who was, I am told, an assistant to James Millen at National.  They work very well together.  I had them on the recent Classic Exchange on 40 meter AM.  When necessary I add a Heath SB-200 to the NTX-30 and get about 200 watts of well modulated carrier output.  The NTX-30 also does a nice job on CW.

73,

Jim Hanlon, W8KGI

  Brian, 
  Congratulations on joining JMS and welcome aboard. You have made an excellent contribution by making electronic copies of both of these fine publications available to us which will be useful to many and certainly appreciated. Radio Design Practice which is a collection of engineering drawings and specifications for many parts National made in the 1930s is an excellent reference source and actually quite rare. Your Notes on Amateur Radio Transmitter Design is especially useful to me at the moment. I am currently in the process of going through two National NTX-30 transmitters and two NTE exciters and having the copy on my desktop makes it convenient to find various specifications. Now if I could just find that elusive National NSM Modulator!

  73, Greg; WA1KBQ

  Greetings!  I'm a new member of the James Millen Society and happy to be 
  ssociated with others who appreciate Millen's engineering excellence.  
  My "collection" of Millen gear consists of only a 1942 HRO that's in the process 
  f being re-capped.  So while my hardware stash can't compare to most Society 
  embers, I might still have something to offer.  To commemorate my acceptance in 
  he group, I've posted two of Millen publications that I have not found 
  therwise available.  They are his Radio Design Guide 1935 and Notes on Amateur 
  adio Transmitter Design from 1938.  They're on my web site at: 
  ttp://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/National/Millen.htm
  While on the site you might also be interested in a complete set of G-E Ham 
  ews: http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/GE_HamNews/ge_ham_news.htm<http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/GE_HamNews/ge_ham_news.htm>
  I'm also involved with a group of guys on a ham history email list as we try to 
  ssemble a complete set of RCA Ham Tips too.  We've got a good start but there 
  re some holes, particularly issues that might have appeared during the war 
  ears.  The set as is can be found here: http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/RCA_Ham_Tips/rca_ham_tips.htm<http://n4trb.com/AmateurRadio/RCA_Ham_Tips/rca_ham_tips.htm>
  I need to send out a special thanks to Tim Walker, W1GIG, whom I met at the 
  ntique Wireless Association (AWA) conference a couple of weeks ago.  He signed 
  ff on my membership application and also got me set up with most all the parts 
   need to build a 1929 Hartley and get it on the air for the AWA Bruce Kelly 
  vent.  THANKS, Tim!
  Comments are welcome!
  73,
