E. F. Johnson Viking Adventurer Restoration: Part #5

[@martyyoung598]

Very nice job. I understand the attachment you have to this rig, 20W is plenty enough for enjoyable QSO’s. 73

Thxs fer the great vid. I grew up in MN so, I like Johnson rigs. I have an Adventurer that needs TLC. I want to pair it with my Grandpa's 1967 DX-150 RX. My Grandpa was frugal so, not much of a stretch to picture him using one back in the 70's. AA0QZ.

I always wished for a Adventurer ! I have a knight kit t 60 instead !
I do not know why but I just wish my T 60 were a Adventurer instead !
I a huge ef johnson fan and a Adventurer would match my Matchbox !
Great videos 73

Believe it or not, Ace hardware has really nice chicken head knobs! They have instrument knobs for sale in the area where they sell nuts & bolts. If you check it out, you would be surprised and I think the kind I have in mind would look beautiful on this beautiful transmitter!

I restored mine sure enjoyed your video however, noticed a meter in the upper left corner don't remember what you use that for. It was a great xmiter back in my Novice days 50yrs ago.
was fun those days made lots of contacts. Thanks for sharing really appreciated it.
