Hello List:
While doing some research on my Collins 21E Transmitter, I discovered
documentation indicating that it was orignally tested for installation at
WMEX 1510 in April of 1964.
We've been using it since about 1980 when we were granted permission to
increase power from 1kw NDA to 5kw NDA (Daytime)
Now I really feel honored to sign the station on and off and to perform
maintenance on her!
