Rich,
Welcome to the Drake enthusiasts "club". As to a favored calling frequency, there is a Drake Technical Net that meets at 4 pm Eastern time, Sundays, on 7238 +/- QRM. I'm sure you'll be happy with your TR4C.
73,
Evan, K9SQG

Good Day all, I'm new here and just wanted to say Hi!
I have always wanted an old boat anchor radio since getting first licensed about 20yrs ago. I found an old Drake TR4C at an acceptable price on ebay and purchased it and have made a few contacts? CW with the rig. The radio is very nice and all that I had expected it to be. She is going off for a "full service" tune up and having a new faceplate put on since the prior owner drilled a hole it it.? When it's back, I hope to work some of you Drake to Drake CW. Do you guys have a favored calling frequency on 40?
Thanks again.
Rich
