>I had to put my two cents worth in on the easiest TX to rebuild, repair, restore. It goes to the Heathkit DX-40 my novice rig from 1965 when I started. I bought it used, went through two novice tickets then put it on the shelf for twenty years. When I brought it back out for AM use recently, it needed much work. All the filter caps were easy to find and install. A new 6146 and a 6CL6 were needed as was a new power transformer (smoke at first test). I got the transformer from Vin on this reflector. The best thing I did was to clean up the wiring and bad solder joints from the original constructor (not me). It works great. First CQ from here in Toledo netted a Puerto Rican response on 40 meters. A Heathkit basic rig is a good first project. Ken Zuercher KC8QO
