It was an extremely rare and a once in a
lifetime opportunity that Dick Schnell gave me to check out and work on
this transceiver. Why? Well first off I probably would never be able to
afford one as rare as this and I just really wanted to see what all the
chatter was about. I was amazed. I am the owner of a great many quality
vintage BA setups, including my late series Collins S-line
(75S-3C/32S-3A) and Drake C-Line (R4C/T4XC). I even own other PTO
driven rigs, beside the aforementioned, like my Central Electronics
100V, Collins 310B-3, Hunter Cyclemaster 20A and the little Ten-Tec
Argonaut. I suppose trying another PTO driven radio was just an
necessity to finally see if someone made a bad PTO rig. Well I'm still
searching.
This transceiver has moved on to a new home in Texas in late 2005. I
hope it provides many enjoyable years of operation for the new owner.
