Collins 21 Series - 5 and 10 kW Transmitters

The Collins 21A was produced beginning in 19xx

The Collins 21B/L was produced beginning in 1947

This 21B was the auxiliary at WSM for many years.

The 21L was the 10 kW version.

The Collins 21E/M developed a reputation as a workhorse transmitter. Many 21Es are still in use.

	The 21E was contained in three cabinets. KNST, Tucson shown

	The 21M - the 10 kW version of the 21E had two PA tubes. Otherwise it was essentially the same transmitter.
