? The toasted BS contacts can be removed by drilling out the rivets. New
contacts can be fastened in with #0-80 screws. If the 10m and/or 15m contacts
are burned, the most likely cause was an intermittent parasite. To prevent an
encore, decrease the Q of the VHF parasitic suppressors.

? There is an adequate breakdown-V safety factor considering the anode-V used
in the 201.

? I can e-mail you a JPG of the diagram if you want.
