..........Now if historic spark transmitters were permitted that could be fun. I
havn't operated spark since I was 12 years old. It was (slightly)
unofficial......

So did I, at about the same age, using a Ford coil which I still own. It worked well, on an inverted L antenna, and obliterated all broadcasting reception in my small country town. The nearest broadcasting station was a hundred miles away so my state of the art transmitter had an easy victory. Needless to say, I did a fast close-down before the dreaded Radio Inspector hit town.

A rather late confession.
