[Heathkit] HW-101 Upgrades

[Richard H. Arland]

About 30 years ago, one of the ham mags (I don't think it was QST or HR 
as I have all these issues on CD ROM and can't find the article) ran an 
article on upgrading the HW-101 to the equivalent of a SB-101. Adding 
such things as low level RF output for transverters, extra jacks that 
were controlled by the existing relays, input for an external VFO, etc. 
As a matter of fact, now that I think about it, there was also an 
article about the same time regarding making an outboard VFO from parts 
ordered from Heath. It was housed in a SB series speaker case, but had 
the VFO from the HW-101 including the dial, bezel and escuntion plate. 
Quite a neat looking affair, actually.

Does anyone know where this article appeared? I'm thinking CQ or 
possibly it was 73. Sure would like to get my hands on that article and 
update my HW-101 now that it is pieces where I can get to everything.
