If the gears or parts are metal, and to be lubricated, I have used a silicon
based grease that is wide temperature, which maintains its lubricating
properties from below 0 and above 300 deg F. I've used this in certain
applications 25 years ago and it still hasn't dried out...
Too, if one is
for one power supply, shipped USPS
priority mail to your door for $10, lower 48 states only. Alaska and Hawaii
would require extra shipping but not sure how much. I am unable to ship to any
foreign country regardless of location.
Enjoy those Drakes.

any of you might have experienced a similar
situation. I hope this is an isolated situation and it serves to remind us
that when there is a problem like this, shutting things down quickly is the
best course of action.
Enjoy those Drakes.

Woody,
I've heard of numerous people using the D-104 with the TR-7 as discussed on the
Drake nets. Values I've heard range from 470K to 1.3 meg in series with the
mic hot lead. If there is a speech pre-amp in the mic, it should not be used.

Fellow enthusiasts,
Thanks for all the nice emails. Wish I had a hundred kits available for all
the Drake enthusiasts.
Have a safe, enjoyable, holiday weekend. Please remember the price that has
been paid for our freedom.
