[BC] WLS Tx History Update

[Dana Puopolo]

At 850 WHDH in Boston, I had a 317 C2 and an original MW-50, updated to a C.
Both were licensed as alternate mains. I much preferred the sound of the
Continental to the Harris on air, as did my boss, the GM.

We modified the Continental by replacing the input transformer with a
differential input. Boy did it like that! It modulated like crazy!

Later on I visited the site. The Continental was on the air, but absolutely
filthy inside. Later on it caught fire and they replaced it with a DX50.

The WLS history goes:

Harris MW50 x 2 in 1978.  317C3 in 1989 and one MW50 sold off,  1998 DX50 goes
in and 2nd MW50 sold off.  316 (10 kW life boat deep back up) was purchased at
the same time as the 317C3.

In spite of the measurable higher distortion of the 317 (intermod and
harmonic) the Harris DX50 and Continental 317 will sound near alike in audio
performance.
