That's what I remember about the Heath TV, too, Larry. I built one just
before Christmas 1968, and stuffed every single board myself...

I answered several people privately. See, it saves bandwidth to reply on the
reflector to even the OT stuff<G>.

When I needed a TV in the early 1980's I had been traveling a lot and the
ham gear was packed away so, to satisfy my desire to mess with the soldering
iron, I stopped in at Heath and picked up one of the 19-inch color TV kits. 

I was sorely disappointed to see that assembly consisted of soldering up a
few cables and mounting all the pre-stuffed boards. Apparently, in the later
years, they decided to do that so my experience wasn't what you owners of
the older sets had.

Elecraft content? Well, at that time I was living in Capitola just a couple
of miles down the road from where the Elecraft offices are now <G>.
