I think I chatted with You about the 4-65 tubes I seen in a UHF rig when
I was in the Navy.
They were used in the Modulator section (I think it was a AN/GRC-39?),
too long ago....., I just remember the rig was called a ANGRY something.
I like the Specs for the 4-65 Tube.

I'm not sure but I'd think that here in the U.S. a couple of wing nuts
would make it a easy job for a thief to steal that TR-3.
I just looked at what I said was the "Bolt(s)" Bruce and I used.
Each one is a 4 1/2 " long piece of 1/2 Inch Threaded Stock with a Nut
on one end of it and 2" of the other end is smooth - the threads have been
grounded off.
A small hole is drilled through the Nut for a Keeper Pin to keep the Nut on
the Threaded Stock to mount the TS-520S when I had it in the 1969 Buick,
years ago.
Bruce's idea made it a "little" harder for a thief to remove the XCVR.
Is thievery a problem where You live like it is in the U.S.?

Even though I haven't keyed a rig for years, I love 20M CW too.
