Filll-up,

You started down the freeway of perdition when you got your ham ticket.... ;)

That is a nice setup, BTW.

Please don't buy another Valiant, OK.

"He covets. That is his nature.

And how do we begin to covet?

Do we seek out things to covet?

Make an effort to answer now. "

Jim, believe me, I think choosing a Valiant for my first tube transmitter with zero troubleshooting experience was one of my more hairbrained decisions. Call me crazy.

Buying a Valiant as Jim can attest to was the best thing I ever did. I sure learned a lot about tube transmitters and troubleshooting them, fixing them, cussing them.......
Really all you have to do is rebuild the darn thing into what you want.

Sometimes I regret not having a family, but on the other hand, a little extra boot for electronics over the years has been good for me. I could never say I'm on the road to perdition!
