Hi Hue & all,

I picked up several old 1947 CQ magazines at the Santa Maria hamfest on 
Sunday and while looking through them and drooling over the many surplus 
equipment ads found the GP-7 tuning units listed and at least one ad said 
they were also used in the TCE transmitter which I'd never heard of or seen.  
So much for trivia!

73,

Norm Hall, W6JOD
