I am interested in doing such a (small) mod on my TBXs too. Would make them
much more fun. Altho maybe you
wouldn't want to run the pre-8 in the VFO mode. ( single tube oscillator! )
I was told years ago, though, that the
VFO-oscillator was no problem for 80m AM.

Rob responds:

My experience is that with a real TBX power supply such as the 12V
dynamotor or the gas generator or hand crank generator, the keying is quite
excellent on the TBX-4/6 in MO mode.  With a crystal it was not improved,
and there may have even been a backwave.
