Pretty good idea. It might be worth it asking Doc to make a one-of-a-kind plate. It would be just a call to his CNC shop. The setup is already done and the cost difference should be just the materials.

I've got to do something about the buzzing in my FP. I bought the kit in '98, just as something to do. Little did I realize this kit would be a giant killer. I need to go back and do a nicer job on it. I also bought Doc's original PARASex amps, which I still use everyday. I got one of the last ones he sold and was upgraded to the 8.1 iron.

As far as Guinevere is concerned, I'm using 20 ga copper sheeting which is way too thin. I'm having to do some supports under the hood just to keep the top for sagging. The Heyboer Tx weighs at least 7 pounds and then there's the choke and filiment Tx on top. All in all I have 12-13 pounds of iron sitting on top......Colin
