[Lowfer] Fw: Xtal-Controlled Beacon Transmitter

Good Day All,

As was previously stated re. my original message (below), I'm interested in
building something rock-bound & "vintage" for the 1750-meter band (160- to
190-KHz)...NOT 1750-KHz! (apologies for my fat-fingering).

Any favourite OT circuits floating around out there that I might borrow for
the project...? It could mean the development of another beacon going on the
air north of the 49th parallel this coming winter...!

Thanks in advance, & my vy

Good Morning All,

Does anyone reading this have a scanned copy of a schematic diagram --- or
perhaps can direct me to a source of same --- for a crystal-controlled,
tube-type beacon transmitter for use on 1750-KHz...?

The design should incorporate a fundamental frequency crystal. I already
have the mechanism(s) required for keying the rig automatically.

I'd like to put some of my hollowstate hardware to some use this coming
winter, & this idea strikes me as one that might be a lot of fun.

Many thanks in advance, & my vy
