Well, Andy all that I was saying was that the original 2312's screws were only finger tight, now maybe they got loose through vibration, given the fact that the radio has been transported from one side of the USA to the other several times. But in any case maybe I neglected to say that for all those years the radio put out like a banshee, with well over 100% modulation (only if I wanted it to) , and produced exactly what the factory spec. wattage is supposed to be both on am fm and ssb. So what I am saying is that the radio alway worked great and I always got excellent reports from so many different people using a variety of ground plane as well as numerous beam antennas. Somehow I get the feeling that you are under the misconception that I decided to change out the finals because the radio was not performing correctly,which is definitely not the case. My decision to change the finals to the Motorola's were strictly based on wanting a little more wattage than the 25 watts on am and 40 on ssb that's all? Now to: Sith what I was saying is that the producer of star wars could never have chosen a better voice for the character of Darth Vader! And anyway who in the hell is Bobby Boucher??. . . . . ya' know something this place is NUTS!!!. . . . And that's why I know I found just the right place, a place for screwballs. Which I have been referred to most of my life HAAAA!!
P.S. And Stephanie looking over my shoulder (As she often does) is in total
agreement. . . . . . About my being a screwball I mean!
