Well...I'll take this opportunity to introduce myself, I'm Greg.
I have a small "collection" of old radios. Without an SSTRAN '3000, they wouldn't get too much use. This beast has been operating 24/7 for ~ 5 years!
Anyhow, while searching the internet for vacuum tube part 15 transmitters, I found your site. I'm starting to think about my first part 15 "home-brew". I was looking for different ideas.
Thanks for the web site!
Glad you found us!
If you like tube transmitters, check out this one. A friend of mine bought it on ebay several years ago, but it stopped working. Just had to bend a wire to eliminate a short and it works great.

Here's a LINK www.ohio.edu/people/postr/bapix/knightwb.htm to a series of articles about the KnightKit broadcaster which might be of interest to you. Follow the links in the main article for more information. One fellow has posted about building a replica of this unit.
I have one from the late '50s which still works very well. It has a bit of hum but otherwise it sounds good.
