I started of wanting to build an AT5 with a bit more punch and to cover 60mtrs as well as 160 and 80 mtrs - so the project evolved into an AT5 on steroids ultimately using a pair of KT88's, Woden UM2 mod tranny and a pair of 6146's in the final.

The design was a hybrid of a RSGB article mid 60's combined with a DX100 - trying to take the best bits from both of them.

If you search for some of my earlier posts you'll see photo's of it.

Here's one such thread

On air reports have been good but always thought it could benefit from an old style crystal mic - time will tell !

edit - apologies for thread drift off topic.
