WICEN Vic: Fascinating technology

[Donald Fraser]

Hi,

Details of the recent  transmission from the historic SAQ Grimeton transmitter? I never seen a better example of Steampunk Radio than this. I watched the YouTube video and was amazed at the complexity of the generator for the carrier wave, its oil pumps and variable water resistors, and the relays which all work to generate the constant 17.2 Khz carrier.
