Sorry to hear, Brian. I still have mostly just a carrier here in the USA. Probably not enough for a QSL.

Sorry to hear, Brian. I still have mostly just a carrier here in the USA. Probably not enough for a QSL.

Lesson learnt last night.
Running a 70 yo transmitter with 125% modulation and the Optimod set for for the loudest possible audio (HF MAX setting) is not a good idea.
I can still smell the smoke from the power supply choke.

Ah well, it was fun while it lasted.  ;D
