Hello Jay

Yeah that sounds like a fun boat as a yougin for certain. My dad never had
much interest in radio, but he was/is a hell of a fisherman and hunter.

Gotta enjoy those tube type rigs while they're still alive, qsk.

The old man has the real radio voice so if I want to draw attention to
myself I put him up to calling cqdx. Good clean radio fun.

Hello Steveo:

Yeah man no kidding, nice driver. Dear ol Dad had a Mustang 100 shoe box
linear on his Albocore Fishing Boat. This amplifier had two 6JG6A's in
it. Then it was replaced with the palamar 150, OH yeah what a Big Strap!

This drove a 2 element quad antenna on the fishing boat. Dad loved to
shot skip to all over the world on the CB on the boat. Buts thats
another story.
