<< The old Heathkit generator I got from Bill Block back in the 70s, when

 frequency I am tuned to with the R8, so I can monitor it out at the end
 of the termination with a portable. I can get the pot adjusted
 perfectly. No guess work. I have been doing that for years. Works like a
 champ. I run a 3 foot piece of wire from the output tube grid to a
 curtain rod for an antenna.  It covers a mile or more in all directions. >>

Wow, impressive range. What's the output tube - 6AQ5?
