For how long I don't know. I replaced one transistor, and got 
back to full power, then a T-storm came thru and soaked the 
ground again, and the output is down ( SWR high ?? ) and the
transistors are getting hot again. I may have an ant. problem.
May be about time to clean and re-do the connection points.
I only wrapped them together, so now I need to do it right and
solder those joints.

The parts requesitioning thru the cannabalization process
continues with eager sucess. It's surprising what you can find
on old TV and receiver boards. I did order some needed parts
to build the USB filter with that I don't have on hand. This
is getting kind of exciting here.

73 everybody until next time :::
