[GreenKeys] Not Your Average M14 - eBay

[Lee Mushel]

Curious?   I don't think so.   One has been in my shack since the late 70's. 
It is the first machine I obtained that, being essentially a pile of rust, I 
had to take apart down to the screw level before re-assembly.

I guess I knew it was not a popular machine because whenever I would include 
"FRXD" in my list of stuff,  no one ever responded.   I must say that I 
don't have the cover!

Oh yes, I did want to mention that I am puzzled by the apparent inability to 
differentiate between CW (make/break) keying and some FSK.   My problem is 
that I haven't heard the 4004 signal yet.  Too many holiday activities to 
let me "optimize" things around here for that!  A deer decided to wrap a 
substantial portion of my beverage antenna around trees and bushes.   But 
once the signal is detected, software defined radio software will certainly 
make such a thing quite simple.
