So you mean we will be able to tune the PA so we can see the shadow of
the gate through the drain just like we did with the good old 813s?

As for Dave's knife switches, I've been searching for years for one of
those ceramic based ones my Grandad had on his window-sill for grounding
the antenna.

Dear Tom, LF Group,

With the recent progress in high-temperature semiconductors based on silicon carbide and other materials, devices that work at 650degrees C now exist. Glowing MOSFETs may be a practical proposition before long - I wonder if that will bring about a resurgence in ebonite panels and brass terminals?

Cheers, Jim Moritz
