Vacuum tubes on the summit

Hi Andrew,

Eddie was conservative so his rig will probably give the same output today as when new.

The Polish resistance located in the UK built spy radios with 829B output tubes. They needed 10 dB more power to work from Poland cf France. Would have been a heavier suitcase!

I think the Rx was more sophisticated too.

Now if I could find and afford one of those…

ok, you got me now.
My project for this year. I have a Geloso VFO G-4/104, TX will be 2 - 4 W. RX and PSU to be built…
vollroehrisiert - which means quite the opposite of “fully transistorized” in German. As I grew up a generation later, I always found this slogan written on some radios of the late 60s and 70s very disturbing.
My strike back: fully tubysized
