Hi Dick,
There was an article in CQ (I think) back about then, written by Henry
Elwell (sk), then a W2, later N4UH (Uncle Henry). He wrote quite a few
articles for CQ & HR back then. It was switched xtals, down to 1 kc I
think. I have his original notes and correspondence, the magazine
issue, and the major modules of the system. He used interlocked push
switches, like those used in BC & car radios for station selection, in
decade fashion. I guess you could call it "DDS", but it's not digital
as we think of it today. (you do use your digits to press the switches.)
73,
Al, W8UT
