Title: 1937 Utah Jr. Transmitter - Finally Finished - Really
Post by: W1UJR on January 11, 2009, 02:50:55 PM
An entirely gratuitous and self serving posting of the final restoration of my 1937 Utah Jr. transmitter.  ;)

Almost a year to the day from when it started.

Bruce,

Absolutely stunning station setup!  I think your time was very well spent.

Looks great Bruce,--you do good work in restoring equipment.
My experience has been,--its almost more work to restore an old piece of equipment, as it is
to build homebrew from "scratch".

Actually,--I would rather build a rig from scratch than restore a "rustbucket", It can be
more frustrating (and time consuming) to restore than build.

Beautiful job! looks new. I like the design giving the choice of 6L6 or 6F6 for the builder.

It does operate in AM, only in a binary state.  ;)
