Am still tweaking my Knight TR-106. Found a second
12-pin connector at the Fest this morning so I will
have both an AC and a DC cable.
Have located a second V-107 VFO so I can add a dual
tube buffer which I may modulate for DSB.
Were I to find a third V-107 I'd mod that for FM!
Also found a matching amp. It reportedly has a problem --
it "blows fuses with the tubes in it". It, of course,
does not do so when the current owner pulls the tubes.
Anyone seen this before and have a suggested cure?
Am still looking for a matching blue Knight microphone.

Thanks! & 73,
