Note that the external power supply is not included, but this is an
excellent opportunity to return to the good old days of point-to-point
wiring, grid shorts, VFO drift, TVI and visits to the International Tune
Up Frequencies. Before you decide a home brew power supply is out of the
question 'cuz transformers are so hard to find, consider that Tektronix
5xx series scopes are cheap, abundant, and overbuilt. Each one of them
has a very high quality transformer with multiple secondaries that can
be wired in series / parallel for a variety of voltages. They also
include, at no extra charge, a number of vintage electrolytics that tend
to age well.
