Thanks Pete, those trailer brakes capable of stopping too good, 19 to 21 on the brake controller is about as high as is safe with light to no loads. 23 is as high as I've ever set it with a heavy load of wood. When I haul the Sporty the lowest setting is fine. I reduce it to 17 in the rain.

The Saito .30 is a cute little secret weapon, with a Graupner 10.5x5 it will haul an LT 25 out of 2" grass in about 4 feet. Picture #2 is with a 8x6 three blade. Barry, the 6973's could be found in Gretsch and Magnatone amplifiers, you have to be careful when buying one, there are fake ones that are triodes as opposed the real ones being pentodes.
