Very Cool!
I like that 18 MHz PP rig and the Half Rhombics

I'm glad someone is documenting some of this old, lost stuff.

Thanks for posting it!

Hi guys,

Glad you enjoyed the article.  Took me about three years of poking around the archives and asking old-timers (many gone now) to make that "stamp album."  Was a lot of fun though.  The layout people did a fantastic job.

Lincoln Laboratory was (and still is, as far as I know) a great place to work.

18MHz striplines. that is a hoot. I like it. Nice to read about the older stuff no one ever gets to see.

Thanks for writing it and putting it together. History that shouldn't be forgotten; so much old gear off in the dumpster or surplus store.

Very nice work!
