Night of Nights Returns

[Pete, WA2CWA]

From the ARRL Web Site:

Several commercial coast stations will be back on the air Thursday, July 13 (UTC), to mark the "Night of Nights VII." The annual event commemorates the last commercial Morse message sent in the US. Many commercial radio operators also were Amateur Radio operators. Historic KPH -- which has been maintained in operational order and hosts Amateur Radio station K6KPH -- will celebrate its 101st anniversary this year.

Interesting.   The RCA on the left looks to be a mirror image of my BTA-1M.  Mine has the control panel on the right, and the door slides open to the left.   The ARRL URL says Tom is adjusting one of the classic RCA H, K and L transmitters.  Model numbers ??

Also, Tom appears to be twiddling the knobs on the center transmitter yet looking at the meters on the left one!!

Photo opportunity. Grab a knob and look at a meter. Just like in the movies.
