In 1956 when I was in the 10th Grade, the High School had a Amateur Radio
Club.

Previous Students (and the Teacher) had built a Rack Mounted Kilowatt,
Plate Modulated Transmitter they used on 15 Meters.

The Final Amp had a pair of 810's in it.

In the Schools neighborhood was one family who had an older model Television
Set that had a 21.255 Mc. I.F. in it, and the School would get calls
on the telephone about TVI.

The Radio Room Teacher changed the Plug-In Coils in the rig to use it on
20M and after doing that the School didn't get any more TVI calls.
