[GreenKeys] HAL Made Receivers?

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

Ralph... read back      a  few   messages  for  Bill Henry's  commentary on 
this   reviewer.  Yes,  the exact model # on  EBAY is   the  one  you  saw 
indeed!  A pretty amazing training  setup! Trying to  instruct a  group of  
people at once   always  demands interesting  training  aids  like  this.

At one time, HAL made Receiver  SIMULATORS  for training  people how to use 
similar,
actual receivers from various manufacturers.  They performed very  much 
like the
receivers they simulate.  The frequency and time of day will give  results 
like an
actual receiver.  QRM and QRN may have been 'adjustable' by an  instructor. 
 I saw
these items at Dayton several times, and Bill Henry gave me a brief  
demonstration.
(I think it was Bill!)  You could turn the VFO and CW signals  would change 
in
pitch and SSB signals would go from low rumbles to high pitched  'Donald 
Duck'
sounds and then disappear altogether, just as they would on a real  
receiver.


I can't think of anyone else than the Military who would want them,  but I 
didn't 
ask questions.  Just an interesting gadget that probably cost a  lot less 
than the
receiver it was simulating.


I am going to  GUESS  that the item on eBay is one of these  simulators.  


They worked from a microprocessor and HAL software to give the  training 
results
needed to teach receiver operation.  Conceivably, a trainee could  move 
from one of
the simulators to 'the real thing' and do fairly well.  At least  that was 
the idea.


Any further inquiries should be addressed to Bill, who may monitor  
GreenKeys.  I'm
certain he will be glad to fill in any blanks I left due to my failing  
memory.


Note on the rear view of the device, there is  NO  ANTENNA  connector.
Just what appears to be 'data  connectors' of some kind.

This is the first one I've ever heard  of.
Does anyone have any first hand experience with them?

Tried to look it up but one site _SMECC.org_ (http://smecc.org/)  had  
something on it?s pages but when I went to the link it set off my avg  antivirus 
so was unable to continue. Closed everything and tried again but the  same 
result when I went to that page that had the HAL  info.
