   Howdy! Holger,   
      
   While I was searching for the HEATHKIT Catalog I flipped the Power   
   Switch and the Filament Switch on the TS-520S to ON.   
      
   After finding that 1967 catalog I loaded up the XCVR to the Cantenna.   
      
   It dipped to 200 ma CW in the IP Meter Position and I didn't SEE or   
   SMELL any Smoke in the Ham Shack.
