Des Moines notes describe an engineer who overpowers equipment, burning out tubes by pushing 150 watts on a 50-watt tube. He replaces failed parts, claiming their tubes were too rugged for ham use. Early radar work by Page and Guthrie used improvised tubes until funding allowed proper radar-specific tubes.
