The scans are nothing to write home about, but at least they load fast. I had no idea how much stuff Eldico made!
But...boo...hiss...the antenna tuner isn't link-coupled. Bad, Eldico! ;)

If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.
Guess I've led a sheltered life, I've never even heard of them before.

They were pretty rare, even in their day. I only saw one once. My barber (W8BQG, Keith Hills, sk) ran one with a Johnson Thunderbolt and an 'A4, and that's the only reason I knew of them. The other top-tier hams in town ran 100V's. If you haven't already, you can learn lots about them through google-fu, including a lawsuit from Collins when Eldico tried to second-source military HF gear.
The 100F may have been the first ham transmitter with a 'scope built-in. I [think] (but not sure) that they pre-dated CE's 100V.

There are some nice pix of a 100F in this eBay listing. (Darn eBay won't let me download images anymore...guess I'll find 'em in "Temporary Internet Files?").
Anyway, those are good pix of a great, if rare, transmitter from the 50's. If I saw one like that at a hamfest and I could give it a good home, I'd snatch it up for a price that this one is going to fetch. Make a nice addition to a vintage collection.

You could probably pick one up real cheap in WA6MHZ's garage, once you got past the pit bulls and the black widows.Originally Posted by W1GUH
73,
And the drama, and the exclamation points, etc.

Not to mention ABNS.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

Wow, megacycles! That brings me back to the Olden Dayes for sure.

Does your lady have a menstral hertz?
