    4. Patch my variable B+ supply in and bring the plates up to about 500 volts
    5. Unplug every computer / Rf sensitive in the house.
    6. Connect DOSY "wattmeters" and check for some output
    7. Package and lug back to car (I'm charging really for the strain on my back more than RF work!)
    8. Deliver and return myself to repair retirement.


    In my retirement, I am turning down jobs containing "Toobs" with Handles; there are at least three stations running Steel Tubes in the area.

    .
    I should have turned this one down.

    On Edit: I pulled the bottom off of the donor amplifier -- stock, hasn't been touched since it was constructed in the 1980's

    Pictures to follow......
