W1FPZ Speaks About The Gross Radio CB-25 Transmitter.

This is the rig which formally belonged to Bill Orr W6SAI, the well known author and a former editor of the "West Coast Radio Handbook".

Bill Orr had a special place in his heart for Gross Radio gear, having grown up in NYC, he had visited Jerry Gross's store as a young boy. Bill later wrote about those experiences in February 1977 issue of CQ magazine.

John related that Bill had given the transmitter to him to restore, with the understanding that John could keep the rig after the restoration, if he would send Bill photos of the completed work for his scrapbook.
