It sounds like this would be a really fun project. I always wanted to build an HF CW rig using a 5894 tube... In a mailbox chassis/ cabinet, I still think mailboxes have a future with me in home brew transmitter projects!

I will use some other tube probably - maybe a 6CL6 - 829B combo...

Best regards - Bry Carling, AF4K
