[Hammarlund] Old Hammarlunds

[WILLIAM MARX]

I haven't heard diversity mentioned often when talking about SP-600's.

My Dual Diversity was converted by TMC in 1956.  There is a tag inside with the 
information.

It appears to have been manufactured in 1952 from what I can tell. I guess the 
military shipped them to TMC for conversions.

The SP-600 J, not JX came out in 1951 with no crystals.

The first diversity version was done by Northern Radio.  SP 600 J11 is 
what the dataplate has on the turret cover.

They have one heck of selectivity!  One part non-crystal, then the 
remaining is a variable crystal type.
