        Lucky guess. You guys still have reams of knowledge more than I have. That's why I lurk.

        Waitress, more coffee all around.

          My first thought was "Public Broadcasting"! Shows you how times have changed.

              PB is the scientific notation for lead.
              You should be using leaded electrons for the power and if need be you should have the radio heads machined to hardened for the frammic valves.

              Now, some will say that using the leaded electrons for the radio power is no longer needed, but me, I use it. I also use 13.5 leaded volts and not the easily available 12.5 unleaded volts. That higher volts and the leaded electrons rally make the radio come to life, especially in the higher frequency bands.

              Just saying.....
