Gerald, Are you going to do the viewing window on the inside grate??? I take it that you will not be using the front door..I am not on my 1G but would love to put a viewing window in but trying to figure out how to do it and keep it clean..Congratulations on your Gates... Mine came out of operation at KOPY in Corpus Christi, TX last year. They are now having more trouble with their new solid state then they ever had with the BC1G... They have had more down time on the Solid State in one year then they had the whole time since 1962 with the Gates LOL... Ohhh the love of transistors...

On Wednesday afternoon I went to the station with two of my men. There I met Mike Holderfield N4RMS who is the chief engineer. We spent about two hours removing all the heavy iron and loading it in my covered pickup. Some one had marked all the leads with Brady wire markers so all we had to do is remove them. On Thursday we went back with a fourth man and a trailer and loaded the cabinet and brought it home. This rig has been properly maintained throughout its years of service and will require little to get it on the air. The output configuration is already a pi-L net with an adjustable 2nd harmonic filter connected between the two sections to ground. Converting this to ham service will not be a problem. A complete set of manuals was included. Since I have a new T368 exciter I am even looking to use that and bandswitching the whole thing to a least 160 to 40. I have many projects to work on but this one some how got to the top of the list. Since the tubes are mounted right behind the front panel a viewing window will be installed and one more high powered AM rig will "Glow in the Dark" Thanks to Charles N4FA, and Mike N4RMS.
