This picture of a 300E/F from a 1937 Collins catalog is shared with us by John
Aegerter, WA9GAR.
The transmitter had a pretty straightforward and clean design. Here is a
closer view with the doors open: |

Here is a look into the rear of the 300E/F
The E version ran 100 Watts, using Cunningham C203 tubes in the PA. The F version ran 250 Watts, using C201 tubes. Apparently, Collins used Raytheon and Cunningham tubes to avoid dealing with RCA and Sarnoff for the tube licensing. |

This was the original transmitter that WOLF signed on with May, 9, 1940. It was originally purchased as 1500kc, then changed to 1490 during the bandshift of 1941. The station was 250w until 1964 when 1000 watts was FCC approved and the
Collins became the nighttime transmitter. Bob Mitchell WOLF 1490 Tribute Site Syracuse, NY |

This is essentially a smaller brother to the 550A-1 and 20V ... only at 250 W nominal. It used 4-125s instead of the 4-250s in the 550A or the 4-400s in the 20V series. |
