A fine transmitter! We had one in our high school radio club back on Long
Island (WA2UZL) 1965.  Paired with an NC-303, an Ameco converter and an 11
element yagi up on a tower. Worked all over  the area, up into New England
and down the east coast with it.  Novice licenses.
We also had a TDZ sitting next to it - but Inop.  A lot of gravity in those
rigs, they are probably still in the basement ham station.
