[Boatanchors] Re: [Milsurplus] Receiver to use with HammarlundHC-10 SSB converter

[rrkrr]

My understanding is that the HC-10 is essentially the IF / audio 
circuitry from the HQ-170 / HQ-180 receivers.  Strangely enough, HQ-170s 
(Ham band only version) usually sell considerably cheaper than HC-10s. I 
have used my HQ-170 as a sideband demodulator for other receivers 
lacking them.  Worked fine.
