[BC] McMartin 50Kw

[Mail Radiolanes Account]

The McMartin 8000 was much better than the B-910 and never had a heat
problem with the one I have, the B-910 is another story.
Charlie told me some great stories about the 50kw box. The waning years at
the Omaha factory were not good ones. But the 50kw plate modulated tx is fun
to hear about.
