Good Morning, All, and may The Lord bless and prosper you in 2020.

Around a year ago, several of you helped me with the revival of a 
Canadian Marconi CH-25 channelized AM/SSB transceiver.

  A couple of you actually serviced them, as they were a primary means 
of maintaining contact with remote outposts and settlements in Canada 
during the 1960s and 1970s.  Since "The Snake" is finished (GO-9), I put 
this back on the bench to repair the crystal microphone and decide how 
to configure the channels. Bought myself an early "Christmas Present" of 
one of those two-channel DDS oscillators.  Cool device that allowed 
testing and characterization of what could be used to set the channels 
other than $50 crystals.   Turns out Programmable Oscillators will do 
the job, no extra amplification needed.

One of you told me there was a dealer in Canada who still had parts for 
these rigs in stock,
and I purchased some from him.
I cannot find the email.  Does anyone remember this gentleman?
