[BC] Gates FM 1-G

[stanleybadams]

I had to keep up several of the FM 1G models back in my younger years
(1970's)and they were extremely well built and very tolerant of power
surges, etc.  The best thing to happen to mine was to replace the exciters
with the QEI stereo model, and to put 4CX1500's in the final cavity after
rebuilding it (already 20 years of service on it when that happened-1985).
They were stable and they did their job.

Only problem was that the National RF Choke kept blowing in the PA section
(Z-144 or Z-50).

Does anyone know where I could get a semi-free manual or softcopy of the 1G?

For old times sake.

I recently acquired a Gates 1T, 500 and 250 manual, 
Collins 300 G manual that I hope to scan and make available to any who need
it.
