[GreenKeys] CV-182A/GRC GRC-26(*) Teletype Diversity Converter byHallicrafters

[Lee Mushel]

What an absolutely fascinating thread!   Even though I've been interested in 
this stuff for over a half century I had no idea that this existed nor did I 
ever read about it being used in active ham radio!   And it has only been a 
few years since diversity reception and related functions have been 
available as a software defined radio product.  I did look at the photos on 
the auction site and must admit that I found that very interesting.   And 
since it is possible for me to try such stuff since I do have a capable 
radio and antennas separated by more than a wavelength the process is 
possible for me.  But given the fact that ham radio has so many fascinating 
aspects today I will admit that "True RTTY" is fairly far down on my project 
list.   But if you guys start reporting that actual QSOs are taking place 
with real machines I will certainly give this some real thought!   Weak 
signal and digital modes are my principal interests.
