Hi Werner,

Thanks for your reply. The www.w6htt.com link does not exist (broken
link). I can probably hunt down his web info. I certainly understand
there are strict limits about how far the tuning parts can be separated.
I'm not talking about moving the coil sockets clear across the radio or
into the remote power supply unit. I know there is a cd (or dvd) that
has all the info rounded up in one place but as far as I know all of the
info is also available on the HBR web site, too. Even so, I came about
this close to ordering the "recollections" set (   |<-->|  ).

Did you build one of the HBRs? Maybe more than one?
