[JMS] Wanted: Millen 90881 Band Coils

[Paul Christensen]

Looking for 160m through 20m coil sets for the 90881 500W Millen amp.  I
know they're scarce but please keep me in mind if you have, or find extra
coil sets.  I already have the 10m set.  

Two weeks ago, I refinished the front panels on Millen 90281 HV and Lambda
Model 28 power supplies.  I followed the instructions on the VHT wrinkle
paint can and would you believe it turned out like a factory job?  When the
XYL was out, I used the kitchen oven and set it to 160 degs.  Applied heat
for 15 minutes and the job was done.  

I did depart from the instructions with the application of a light gray
primer after extensive sanding.  Application of the primer was worrisome but
with three heavy coats of VHT, the paint still builds into a consistent
black wrinkle finish.  I had previously encountered paint flaking on some
old gear that wasn't primed.   So, pretty happy it turned out okay.

I'll post links to photos on my QRZ.com page when it's all racked up.
