OK. I put the Simtran to VARIAC, set the latter to 110 VAC, connected an 8 Ohm speaker I have for tests, and plugged it in. The DC rose nicely, and the radio played.
I have a video, have to see if I want to put it to Youtube, considering.....I made the music clip less than 5 seconds.
I put less than 1' long wire to the antenna, to make the reception a tad better, as I am in the basement.
Now I need to align it. I have something I downloaded from Radiomuseum, in German. I hope this is alignment, but can't be sure before I read and translate it.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
