[Milsurplus] Westinghouse MW-2

[Mike Feher]

Bill -

This is a large unit, claims to be 3KW out, from 2 to 30 MHz. It is 6 foot
high 18" wide and I believe 24 inches deep. Right now it is on it is back,
so was not able to peruse the insides. The front was accessible, and
essentially immaculate for the age with no apparent "ham mods". I understand
that the final is supposed to be a Westinghouse tube, one of the ones with
the copper fins on top. As I said, I did not see any of the insides. Thanks
for the info. 73 - Mike
