Thank you for your kind words about Sherwood Engineering.  I was reading your site in search of TR-4C info, specifically looking for a source of replacement speakers for the RV-4C.  If you have any thoughts on this subject, please let me know. 
 
Some tangential info for the TR-4 line:
 
Inrad has made some replacement SSB filters for the radio.  Unfortunately there was some confusion about the filter impedance, and that is being corrected.  I put a set into my TR-4C, and after giving feedback to George, the first run are going to be reworked.
 
Years ago we sold a CW mod to add a CW filter to a TR-4 / TR-4C to make it a TR-4Cw.   While we no longer have the filters, we do have the custom switches and brackets to mount a CW filter and switch it properly.  So if any of the CW filters for the TR-4C ever hit the surplus market, 500 Hz from Drake, then we have switches and brackets for anyone wanting to experiment.  Our filters was 350 Hz 8 pole while Drakes was a 500 Hz 6 pole.  It might even be possible to get some of the experimenter KVG line of 9 MHz filters to work.  We would sell the switch and filter for $15.00.
 
I will spend some time on your site, as I had not been there before.
