Still have this beautiful plate modulated transmitter.  Timmy, N3DRB (SK) got it somewhere in Ohio (?), started rebuilding it, lost interest, and Frank KB3AHE almost finished it off.  It appears all that needs to be done is final connections to the power supply.

Pair of 8005s modulated by a pair of 8005s, so figure 350 watts out.  A Millen exciter is included as is a box of coils and miscellaneous stuff.

It's truly a work of art.  $750, or near offer.  Pickup only in Baltimore, MD.  Proceeds go to Carol, KB3OMT, Frank's widow.
