I always love "gut shots" but these are "alien gut shots"!

Some of the big, weird tubes look like robots from a cheesy 1950s sci fi movie.  Very cool!  :m17

Unfortunately, SLuckey now has to hunt down whoever broke into his workplace to photograph those gargantuan vacuum bottles...

Cheers,

Chip

Boy do i have some stories i could tell about this stuff. Used to get old transmiters from FEMA that were old surplus gear. We would modify them to do unspeakable things. Z500 tubes and wattage that would fry your brain if you werent careful. Actually there is no such thing as safe or careful when you generate 40,000 watts of radiation. It's a long story and one i dont really wish to remember. Pure raw Deadly POWER
