      In a message dated 06-19-14, Ed Vance said to Holger Granholm:              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.                     CU L8ER,              Holger              ___        * MR/2 2.30 * So easy, a child could do it.
