 HG> GE Ed,
GM, It's a day later than I said I'd respond to this and Your next message.

I started a Full Scan with Windows Defender and didn't know it would take longer
than 5 or 6 Hours to complete.
It took over 15 hours since 6AM yesterday and I checked it just now and
it had finished.   WHEW!!!!

That heavy thing (RX) will keep the Operating Desk from floating away

I remember they made a CE 10 and CE 20 back in the late 1950's.

I visited a Ham in San Francisco, California who had a CE 10 in His Shack.

 HG> As VFO I used the one that was built into a BC-458 surplus transmitter.

Hope You didn't have to have the whole BC-458 on Your Desk just to use
the VFO in it with the CE 20.

You were on SSB when I was a SWL using a Midwest Radio Corp. Multi-Band RX. That
was three years before I earned my Novice License.

I have a CE GC-1 Gated Compression Amplifier another Ham gave me in My
Shack.

Ah!, the 1625 was a 12V version of the old reliable 807 tube (iirc).
