Howdy! Holger,

While I was searching for the HEATHKIT Catalog I flipped the Power
Switch and the Filament Switch on the TS-520S to ON.

After finding that 1967 catalog I loaded up the XCVR to the Cantenna.

It dipped to 200 ma CW in the IP Meter Position and I didn't SEE or
SMELL any Smoke in the Ham Shack.
