Can anyone tell me the frequency ranges that were added to the SAC Modified 
KWS-1 and 75A4.
These were modified ham band units used by SAC in the 1950's and 1960's.  I 
used 2 complete
sets of these units at Pepperrell AFB in the late 1950's for a SSB link 
between the headquarters
of the 64th Air Division(Def) at Pepperrell and the Radar station on "P" 
Mountain at Thule, Greenland.

I seem to remember that there were additional switch settings for the 
modified ranges, but too
many years have passed to have a clear picture of these units.

Some of you may have worked me when I used one of the units on the ham 
bands as W2ZRX/VO2,

TIA
