Op said he didn't want to drill a hole in the roof. He never said he didn't want to drill a hole in the side....

Well, how about a ball mount on the side??

This, both of them...

Both of you will be in my prayers.

The last few days I have been hearing Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, and North Carolina quite a bit.

Looks like I'll be heading to San Juan Capistrano tomorrow sometime...

I have heard a lot out there. Seems like almost every night I'm hearing Australia, New Zealand, or Tasmania.

So happy that I already have 2 radios that are older and both work. I am kicking around the idea of picking up a 3rd just because..... Need to see about getting in touch with the guy who has it.

Was starting to hear Australia about an hour ago... I'm on the California central coast.

Wow, they seem to have most everything for a TS. Thank you!!

So, I can figure that this thing is, let's say, about 42 years old with little to no issues until a few years ago... I think I will see about rebuilding it, or at least replacing the older caps that are looking bad, the relay (providing I can find one that doesn't cost a small fortune), and see...

I will have to see if anyone I know happens to have one to test on this setup.

I would love to keep this thing as it has been a good amp for me. I shall address the power wire issue, and find a new relay and cap. I don't believe that it gets more than 14 volts, if it does it shouldn't be much more. I do keep the leads as short as possible, and I'll make sure there are no...

Honestly, I have always noticed a drop in swr when hooked to a trailer, it didn't matter if it was a bumper pull, or the gooseneck. The bumper pull is about 8' away from the antenna, the gooseneck will be about 4' away. This radio doesn't get down to 26.515, unfortunately. I do like the idea of...

I adjusted the dead key until it keyed the amp 9/10 times, then measured the radio output. I would love to have it key at 1/4 watt.

I run my Grant XL at 2 watt am dead key. And never had a problem until a couple of years ago when that cap blew. I would not be surprised to learn that this amp is 30-40 years old.

From the front.

As promised, pics of the antenna mounted, let me know if you all want to see a closer pic of the mounting location. From the back.

Finally here's the schematics to this little bugger.

Trace layout this shows that it was a factory design.
