Very nice to see you got it.
I had a very nice SPF until the chimney collapsed crushing it. I have enough parts to get it going again some day. I have a schematic for the SPF should you need it.

I'm on the air now with a SEA 222 picnic table portable into a 17ft whip by tiki torch light on 7205usb.
