750pf Vac variable anode tune..Note cap is mounted with clamps taken from old electrolytic capacitors
 
Various hand made chokes for GS-31B amplifier
 
Pre drilled and etched front panel GS-31B amplifier
 
Input assembly GS-31B amplifier..Filament choke and B-minus RF choke and bypass caps
 
18uh inductor for GS-31B amplifier hand made with 5/32 hardened solid copper wire....I didn't bother to make smaller aux coils for 30 and 20 meters as I am unlikely to use those bands..20 and 30 are tapped into main inductor
