Brett, reading your QRZ page was a real blast from the past for me. I never had an AM rig like yours, but the guy who got me into ham radio, W0AJU, had one that was similar. A pair of 813s in push-pull for the RF deck (plug-in coils of course, swinging-link antenna coupling), modulated by a pair of 250THs. He had a 20M beam out back on a telephone pole, rotated by a WW2 surplus prop-pitch motor. He worked 250+ with that rig and an old Hammarlund receiver. When he talked the 250TH plates glowed cherry red and their light fluctuated with the audio -- and so did the eerie blue glow from the mercury-vapor rectifiers. And of course like all hams in those days, he was a CW monster with a rusty Vibroplex bug.
