    buddy of mine BIGGER AMP.

    I don't see a connection for the B+ to the Tube anodes nor, do I see a tank coil between the Vacuum Variable and the Air Variable on the bottom. PROBLEM: The filament voltage as well as the RF input is situated on the "Top" part of the RF deck along with high voltage and the Kilo-watt...

    Buddy of mine pretty big amp

    That's an interesting amp, however in my experience 3-500Z tubes are not a good choice for a mobile amp. I knew one fellow who ran them and saw 5 grand out of three and he sounded great but, everybody kept cutting his radio off locally and DX. On the shoot-out line, it was like he never even...

    New Radios vs. Old School Uniden

    I have an Emperor 5010 /Alan 9001 (European version of a Pres. Lincoln), works great and does everything it's supposed to do. So, how does this radio stack up to the newer radios? I like the 5010 because it is easy to work on (no surface mounted parts or micro-fine printed circuit boards)...
