EICO 720 Transmitter.......Anyone ever use one of these??????

[Robert Ross]

Hi Guys:

   Yesterday I was fortunate enough to pick up a few more Boatanchors for 
the collection.....Another RACAL RA-17 with ISB Converter, and an EICO 720 
Transmitter. The Transmitter is in Nice Condition both Physically and 
Electrically...a Real Cool Looking little Rig!!
I do not have the Manual for this yet.....so don't know much about 
it...except that it's supposed to be 90 Watts CW and AM????
Has anyone out there got one of these...or have you ever used one??? I 
would appreciate any comments on the Rig either Good Bad or Ugly!!

Is it possible to hook a Microphone directly to the Rig??? I see there is a 
Plug on the Back of the Transmitter that says "Modulator"......Do I need 
something in between the Mic  and the Transmitter...or can a Mic just be 
wired to that plug and away we go???

Any info, advice, comments pertaining the the Eico 720 Transmitter are 
greatly appreciated!
