I'm considering building the am/cw transmitter in the 1966 handbook

I am curious if anyone has ever built that rig. If I build it, it will
probably be with an outboard power supply, and a single switch for input /
tank band switching.

Also curious: Anyone ever homebrewed a DX-60?

I have the "Inexpensive 75-Watt Transmitter" from the 1964 Handbook.
It's a 12BY7 oscillator driving a 1625. I bought it on eBay a couple
of years ago, and it looks just like the one in the Handbook, with the
vertically mounted meter, coil shields and exact layout. For some
reason, it got painted black somewhere along the way.

I tried it out a few months ago, and should have reformed the caps.
Kerpow!!! So, I've got some work to do on it.
