Acquired this at Dayton this year...wonder if anyone has additional info/experience
with this? Obviously, 100TH's are in the photo, but what else would ya use?
HK54's or maybe a pair of Taylor T-55's!

Anyone used one of these before?

(Oh and I know, this one looks like it was dropped from a C-47 at 5000 ft!)

Not I, but you got the main parts there, and only a few really broken things. Hope you will fix it up!  Tubes - well, whatever you got! Those types are a bit rare. I confess I would try 572Bs because they are available or even 813s but I have not looked at any specs for the load resistance etc.. leave that to the serious 'old old tube experts'..

There is something that looks a lot like it in GE ham news volume 1 No. 1. It uses 813s. Not classic Triodes I realize but a proven project.
