Hi Steve (and Mike WE0H),

You are quite preceptive... a chainsaw weekend indeed.  I cut a 100'
line in the woods this afternoon. And as for warming a Decca (and
eventually some worms under the QTH) I have acquired a Hammond
No. 93895 1.1kVA type "Q" transformer 117 to 55 volts.  I have no
idea what a type "Q" is.  From what I've read it's a "control" xfmr,
but this tells me little.  Will it melt if I use it to heat the
Decca?  It looks a bit small for 1.1 kVA.  Interestingly, it's potted
and waterproof!  Its maximum temperature rise is 80 deg. C. I'm hoping
it will survive QRSS120.
