God is good! For a treat you can tune in 740kc at 10pm and hear a couple of old radio shows out of Canada.If you are still up at 11pm tune up to 900 and hear some more.I've been thinking about building a home broadcaster.Have got some interesting tubes to use, was thinking of using an 829B for the rf final. http://www.radiomuseum.org/tubes/tube_829b.html Full till it will make about 80watts of rf but not going to run it anywhere near full output. For the modulator was thinking of a 815 http://www.radiomuseum.org/tubes/tube_815.html Just because it's a cool looking tube. It's similar to a pair of 6L6's one one bottle. 6AQ5 for the oscillator and a 12AU7 for the low level audio.With 250-300v it should run 10w or so. One of these days I'll get around to putting it together.

figure out what all those squiggly meant.

Now I think I've got!
