[SEL] Spam> Hot tube info.

[Judge Tommy Turner]

Jim,
    No, hit and miss engines were hot tube also.  The Myrick engines 
were H/M as were the Famous and most of the Type N Fairbanks engines.  
My Stickney Jr. is hot tube and its a H/M so were the Gearless Olds and 
many others.  I think the efficience of using a hot tube on a H/M was 
greatly diminshed as you were using energy to heat a tube that was only 
used 3 or 4 times a minute, more often if under load.
