naw, it took them this long to find an excuse.
CW is dead and the digital modes are only used by a
very few. They can move just like we can.

I have the matching receiver to the BC-610 and it uses
a 12 volt DC (at least I think it is 12 volt it may be
24 volt but 12 trips it fine on the receiver) line to
switch a relay (to mute the receiver and such). The
control line is not easy to determine from the
schematic but it is there.

never, never use peanuts on radio packaging!.
newspaper and bubble wrap. foam is good too.
when a box is dammaged the peanuts fall out and there
goes your padding. the rest is down hill from there.
and newspaper absorbs water so I use that often.

That would keep the FCC monitors listening for sure.

I wouldn't use wood for an insulator. Its insulation
properties change drastically depending on the
relative humidity. I have seen telephone poles light
up quite nicely with 10K volts on them.
PVC pipe (the white stuff) is a good insulator. To
test it, put it in a microwave for a couple of

Great! What we need most are the schematics.

A friend of mine had a Wilkinson AM1000B transmitter
but is lacking the schematic to put the iron back in
it. Someone else took it appart and now he can't
figure out how one of the transformers is wired. a
photograph of the iron would be invaluable. He would

much drive you need for the circuit as you have it?
