[Boatanchors] Boatanchors Digest, Vol 77, Issue 8

I too, need a relay. I am looking for a Dow-Key DK2-60B series. This is similar to the regular DK2-60 series, (which as 6 coax connectors), except it has only 4 coax connectors. It's a " DPDT  switch INTERNALLY connected in the de-energized condition". Voltage of coil 115 AC preferred, but will consider all.
Have LOT of NOS coax switches for trading. Will pay real $ for one also! ha ha

 At least the SX-28 can be substantially improved with a little work. I 
 havent dug into why the SX-25 performs nowhere near what its tube count 
 would lead you to believe. It was the first commercial radio I bought as a 
 Novice in 1955 as an upgrade from modified 80/40M Command sets and wanting 
 to get on 15M. It was dead up there and a dissapointment even on 40, poor 
 mechanical stability. My dad made the seller take it back and on my own I 
 got a HQ-129X which I kept into the mid 60's.

 The recapped and out of tolerance resistor changed, tube swapped and aligned 
 SX-25 I have now hasnt done much to change my opinion. It and a SX-24 are 
 strictly good looking shelf queens. OTOH, a SX-17 that is used often is much 
 better and a similar design (1946) NC-183 runs circles around both. Maybe Im 
 missing something basic such as a production component error.

omething else.. Please forward this to anyone you think would be interested
n AM and AM operation. The TEXAS AM Group is kind of split up between 3.880
