[Boatanchors] FW: My HRO-60 Mystery Plug-in Chassis

[D C *Mac* Macdonald]

Hi, Al and others on the boatanchor list.
 
It is indeed unfortunate, but the moderator of
the Boatanchors list apparently decided not to
let pass my ORIGINAL message that requested
assistance in identifying the add-on chassis
that came in an HRO-60 I bought. Something about
its containing something implicit, whatever the
heck that means.
 
It is, actually, a product detector designed to
plug into the NBFM socket of the HRO-60 receiver
and was identified as such by several members of
the National list where my original message was
also posted, but delayed in release for well over
12 hours.
