[Boatanchors] While we are all thinking about SP-600

Hi John, et al,
    Yup, that's what it looks like, almost, an R-1151/GR.  I have a working 
one.  This one doesn't have the "Video Output" meter on the top rt. of the 
panel, nor evidence of an ID tag.   Looks like he's taken several pix of the 
same stuff to make it look like there's more.  If that's what it is, and it 
does say "wide band", the only thing close to std SP-600 is the mech. tuning 
stuff, turret, and the RF deck.  IF's were special wide-band, plug-in SS 
cards.  Output to video tape recorders, 1 or 2 mc wide IF output IIRC.
    We have the R-1151 manual on The Hammarlund Historian website.
