That's excellent Tim. I used to cycle round to G3TFN in the sixties in Whitefield, Nr Bury. He'd built a a DX100 and ran it alongside an immaculate AR88. I seem to recall that he had modified the TX Output Stage to his own requirements.
I helped him with tuning up various aerial arrays [Lecher Lines?] but I don't know exactly what he did with the PA stage except that it was a bit exciting with the occasional valve flash over or colour change and frequently discussed on the air when he got it operational.
Happy days and hot milky coffee supplied by his wife!
