[Boatanchors] SSB Transmitter Ideas Wanted

[Al Parker]

Hi Dick, et al,
	Paul's response finally jogged my brain out of it's cramped state.  You 
can see some info on "The Sideband Package" from the ARRL publications 
on my website <http://www.boatanchors.org/SBpkg.htm>
	I still have that one, and I know there were a few others out there a 
few yrs ago.  I haven't had mine on the air for several yrs (looks like 
10+), oughta fire it up one of the few times my bench has some space for 
such activity.  I've been wanting to put a fully HB stn on the air for 
many yrs, one of these days I will, but need to get the DCS-500 rcvr 
going first.
73,

an HT37 or 32 or maybe a Marauder all of which fit nicely with the 2B 
for that period
