Authenticity is not the issue. If it were then I should be able to use
a spark gap rig with out any issue.

My point is that if you are going to use equipment then it should
conform and put out a clean legal signal. If you want to keep it as a
museum piece then fine but don't transmit with it.

Deviation can easily be adjusted with out swapping discriminators, even
on military rigs.
