A coincidence you should ask!

 

I finally got round to building a big variable PSU (20 Amp Variac feeding a 3kVa site transformer + bridge rectifier and capcaitor) did the mods to the 5501 and it fired up perfectly. At least 5A antenna current showing on the meter and my 1200 Watt dummy load warming nicely. Input 67 Volts at 22 Amps.

 

Thanks very much for the Tx. Just Have to sort out the antenna now.

LF,

 

Does anyone want a QRSS / DFCW (or even a CW !) QSO on LF ?

I've been calling and sending test signals for ages on 137.7 kHz and will be in the shack for another hour or so.
