I would like to personally thank Glen for all of his contributions on different
lists over the past few years. What a terrific resource that so many of you have
benefited from. Thank you Glen. You are appreciated more than you may know, and
definitely more than most subscribers tell you. Too many of us take too much as
granted -

The "A" models of the Heath single band SSB units had
both sidebands available.  The HW-12 and HW-22 came
only with lower sideband and the HW-32 came only with
upper sideband.  The "A" units had a different colored
front panel, different knobs, and a selector switch at
the bottom of the front panel to select the opposite
sideband.

Although the sideband was switched, the VFO frequency
was not and thus the calibration when the unit was
used on the "opposite" sideband was just under 3 KHz
off.  The VFO was calibrated when in LSB for the 80
and 40 meter units and in USB for the 20 meter unit.
