Bob,
I would be interested also. I have an DX-60/HG-10/HR-10 station and I
am setting up a second entry level station around a Heathkit RA-1 which
is the UK version of the HR-10 and differs in that it has 160 meter
coverage, switched USB and LSB positions, vernier reduction fine tuning,
and the calibrator is standard.
