   Hi Ed,   
      
    HG> 26th 1955 as first OH on SSB. In 1956 I built a Sideband Slicer   
    HG>   la Central Electronics as an addition to the Geloso G-207   
    HG> receiver and also a 150 W Power amplifier with a 4-65A tube.   
      
   EV> The first time I saw a Eimac 4-65A tube I was aboard ship and saw   
   EV> one in a trash can where the Electronics Technician had put it after   
   EV> he replaced one in a piece of gear.   
      
   Well, we were allowed 150 Wo at that time in history so this tube was   
   ideal for the purpose unless you wanted to downspec an 813.   
      
    EV> Which made me want to ask You, does Your License allow You to use   
    EV> One Kilowatt of Input Power at Your QTH in the Aland Islands?   
      
    HG> Well, I could update my license to 1 kW by just requesting it   
      
   Actually I just sifted through the rules and found that I am allowed to   
   run 1 kW with my license but as said I've never had the need for that.
