[Milsurplus] Ext.VFO + BC610

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Oh, I agree with both of you.  Last time I was able to operate any of my 
BC-610's was in the early 70's before I moved to Houston.  But I mostly ran them 
on MO.  In general, that worked better than the NAVELEX VFO.  I was just 
responding to comments and questions on the thread.

If you want to put a BC-610 on FSK, the way to go is definitely the 
O-39/TRA-7.  I've had a couple of them.

Which reminds me, if anyone is interested in a CV-31/TRA-7, I have one 
available.  That's the receiving side of the AN/TRA-7.
