After some adjusting of the contacts on the Dow-Key relay
it's on the air.
You can see a photo of the AM station here,

It's sitting on the right hand side of my big green chair.
The rest of the ham shack is on the left side.

If 75 meters gets a little less noisy maybe I find make some
QSOs.

3.885, really 3.88456 according to the freq counter.

What a coincidence... my first receiver was a National NC-183 (didn't have
bandspread calibration for 15m). And, in high school, the club station
(WA7NUA) used a Viking II transmitter.
