Testing the transmitter
Did some more work on the TCS transmitter. Everything came up good when I bypassed the variac.
While trying to determine which pins of the Morse code Jack were the correct ones to key the transmitter, I found out that the pins in the back of a socket were bent incorrectly and not contacting the correct part of the plug.
I bent them back into their correct position.
Then I was able to Wire up my Morse code key to a plug that fit inside of that Jack, and have the correct pins key the transmitter.
Next I will have to see if I could get any power out of it into the dummy load.
