[AMRadio] RE: GB> Compactrons in Ham Gear

[Merz Donald S]

Thanks Glen. I saw a mention of that somewhere. A quick survey of the web shows the following

6AF11-Used by early Yaesu and plans for receiver plublished in Radio-Electronics

6T9-Used in homebrew CW rig

Yaesu FT-DX560 uses compactrons in the final (!?)

6AV11 is supposed to be 1-1/2 12AU7s

6JM6 used in Yaesu FT-100 Transceiver

6AS11 used in Heathkit SB-300 and SB-301 (?)

Does anyone know of any others?

The Heath "single bander" SSB (HW-12, etc.)
transceivers used compactrons.

Also, General Electric used a lot of them in the
MASTR-Professional two-way commercial FM equipment.

an RTTY TU that uses one. Other than that, I am
compactron-illiterate.
