Yup! Got that FR-221R also. Isn't that a great machine? I have a picture somewhere of my 1970's station where those "twins" were sitting next to each other. The 221 fed a SS 70 watt linear brick which, in turn, fed the old Cushcraft 20 element colinear. I worked many states out to the mid and southwest with that combo.
I took the FT-301 off the shelf last night and it is still working. Does anyone have a LED replacement for those grain-of-wheat lights for the analog dials? I'm getting tired of replacing them and you really cannot read the orange side of the dial without them. Those rigs are so sweet. Still like my Flexers but that unit may end up at my chairside just for show
Don't remember what the board contacts were plated with but I do remember having to gently reseating them once in a blue moon. My policy is to not to move those boards unless absolutely necesssary. I used to have the extenders but lost them in the move to the new shack - they are around somewhere
Thanks for the memories!
