[Heathkit] TX-1 Mods - Heathkits scrapped

[rbethman]

The reason that I chose to keep what I have kept, and will continue to 
use, *IS* because the *NEWEST* piece of equipment was made/ordered in 1951!

I do NOT think the TX-1 NOR the RX-1 are THAT old!  Especially when the 
Heathkit manual is dated 1960.
