AN/GRC-9 Receiver

[Ron W4RON]

Tubes don't get "used up".
Why would you want to bastardize a good working tube radio
by installing transistors?
This is about as bad as guys that put transistors inside
the bases of 1920s tubes...
In hobby use tubes should last many many years,
they'll probably out live you.

He made up a set of plug in FET tube replacements for all the tubes in the receiver.  Well that site is no longer supporting this and a e-mail to Craig got no response.
