Things like 6146 struggle on 10M.
You're expecting a lot getting it to go on 145MHz.
QQV06-40 or 2C39 are better bets for VHF.

Not a problem when running them reduced power. 6146Bs worked well up to
50mhz and at half power ran them up to 2 meters. 2C39 will easily work
on 2 since I have used them to 1.2 and 2.3 ghz. However, they are harder
to socket them. All of the tubes mentioned (and others) are available as
new/old stock from various locations including RF Parts and Hamfests. I
have also used 807Ws to two meters. However, 829B, 832, 5894A (used in
the Johnson 6n2) work well and are available. Might put a request on QTH
as a WTB for any of the above.

Again, as previously mentioned, old handbooks and old equipment manuals
found on the various manual websites for free should give you good
insite as to the schematics to build such a rig. I still have a lot of
tubes here for the purpose of throwing something together once and a while.

I also uploaded a file with WiSP. Hope you can download it OK.

It would be nice if other voice users did not transmit until the
packet transmission has stopped though.

Patience gentlemen, please.

Usually I will just send a few dits to find myself.? When trying to work a
sked footprint edge to edge I need to be at the right frequency at the right
time, without hunting around for myself.? I am refering to AO-7

Hi Bob

Just look at the top page of Mineo WEB page that's what you want to have to
found both your uplink and downlink on AO-7 but you will have
to adjust for doppler.
