Hi Ed,

 HG> 26th 1955 as first OH on SSB. In 1956 I built a Sideband Slicer
 HG>   la Central Electronics as an addition to the Geloso G-207
 HG> receiver and also a 150 W Power amplifier with a 4-65A tube.

EV> The first time I saw a Eimac 4-65A tube I was aboard ship and saw
EV> one in a trash can where the Electronics Technician had put it after
EV> he replaced one in a piece of gear.

Well, we were allowed 150 Wo at that time in history so this tube was
ideal for the purpose unless you wanted to downspec an 813.

 EV> Which made me want to ask You, does Your License allow You to use
 EV> One Kilowatt of Input Power at Your QTH in the Aland Islands?

 HG> Well, I could update my license to 1 kW by just requesting it

Actually I just sifted through the rules and found that I am allowed to
run 1 kW with my license but as said I've never had the need for that.


CU L8ER,

Holger
