Fierce 1-Watter Succeeds

[Brian Carling]

Congratulations, Rod!

Maybe I can also work you TBS-50-D to TBS-50-D very soon!

I have to do the mod to add the 0-30 pF trimmer in the xtal
oscillator on mine - it is not very good with certain crystals
and the book says to add this. I think the previous owner must
have mostly used it on AM!
