Ian, these are great little transmitters! No conversion necessary, just get
the correct plug, tuning unit for 80 or 40 meter. BTW, if you use a carbon
mike, put an external 200 ohms (IIRC) resistor in your mike circuit; this was
done in the control box in the original setup.
Also, the antenna was "part of" the the final tank tuning circuit (short
antenna on the air plane and added capacitance to ground). I moved the
adjustable tap down to about 3 or 4 turns from the bottom, and it loaded up OK on a
dipole or long wire.
