[Hallicrafters] HT-32 PTT and CW break-in mods?

[Larry]

Peter, I have an HT-37 that I often use on CW.  I used the CW "break-in" 
mod from April, 1967 QST page 34.  You will need a 5 meg pot that may be 
difficult to find.  It mounts in an unused hole on the back apron of the 
rig.  This sets the hold time on the vox relay.  I am assuming it should 
work as-is for an HT-32, but you know what they say about "assuming"!  
It works great on mine.  The mod also gives you PTT for phone, but you 
must change the mike connector to use a 3 conductor cable.

If you don't have access to the old magazine, I can scan it and email it 
to you or anyone else who may be interested.

73's,
Larry W4LK
