   Hi Ed,   
      
    HG> It seems to me that you don't download QWK packets very often.   
    HG> There's a huge difference between 11-23-17 and 12-08-17!   
      
   That's more than three weeks!!!   
      
   EV> I got Your message in a 12-11-17 packet but hadn't Replied until   
   EV> 12-16-17.   
      
   Yes, that's OK. Only five days.   
      
   EV> I download packets most days once or twice but don't have time to   
   EV> read everything in them, so I mostly Lurk around a few echos as I   
   EV> have time.   
      
   Appparently you download too many echoes.   
      
    HG> I don't think you'll ever build that RF-Amp.   
      
   EV> Probably not, all I got so far is a Transformer and Filter Choke for   
   EV> the Power Supply and two Tube Sockets.   
      
   I do also have modulation and driver transformers for a 2x807 modulator   
   that I intended to build in 1954-1955, but they became useless when SSB   
   proved to be so effective that no AM was needed.   
      
   I was however named Donald Duck by hams that couldn't read SSB, hi.
