[Milsurplus] Shock Mounts for BC-223 wanted

[John McCarty]

Meir, Tom and All;

	I've been working on the same thing. I don't have the power supply but I built
one up in the discarded case from a BC-906. Mated with a BC-312 I have made some
contacts on 'phone. Had the net control station for the Midwest Classic Exchange
net complain about my "FM'ing". I don't know if that is a power supply short
comming or if I could correct it with a slight re-adjustment of the
neutralizaing cap.

There was a yahoo group for this xmtr, but it's gone quite.
