Thanks Derb
Joe,
I hope to fire up at least the exciter this weekend. We will see how long the "honey do" list is first.

Carl - That's great to hear! I would have scared you up the coils you need, but I'm in the process of dealing with the flood situation, and the local PO is (to my knowledge) closed. I currently have a riverfront property - hi! The water is about 4-5' from the top of the berm on the Delaware Canal, which is in my backyard. If all goes well, and I expect it will, it won't go much higher. The power has been cut, and I'm currently on generator operation. According to the elec company, power may be restored on Saturday. Everything in the basement shack is FBOM and unscathed, including your coils. They're presently hanging in the rafters! (literally, with the rest of my coils).
I don't have any of the "inline" type completed coils, but I do have some inline jackbars that they can be made from.
When you get back, could you measure the jackbars to tell me their length, and how many pins each one has? That would be a great help in finding an oscillator coilset for 75 and 160M for you. The final tank coils already have your name and call on them.
Best Regards,
Joe N3IBX
