The next two week ends you may hear some of our MRCA members participating in the AWA's Bruce Kelley QSO Party using 1929 or an earlier year homebrew transmitter. Usually a 1 or 2 tube configuration. WB7WHG describes the event: "Since we use early designs, it is a cacophony of whooping, chirping,buzzing, clicking, drifting, swishing, swaying, warbling, and other interesting signals."
Since we are forecast here in Chickenland to have 25 mph wind gusts my signal will do its share of all swishing and swaying as the antenna moves in the breeze and changes the load on the transmitter.

Attached photo of my 1929 Harley Oscillator. Tube is a Type 10.
