[Milsurplus] BC-611 basic design error

[Hue Miller]

This is true that working at 30 Mc/s, it would only be able to talk to another such unit, and not even one
of the superregen type rigs with a modulated vfo type transmitter. The distance range of course would
be a mulitple of the lower frequency range.

I thought the BC-1000 could talk to other FM equipment? I suppose the problem would be getting the
transmitter close enough on frequency. The receiver's AFC I think pretty well solves its problem of
being not quite on frequency.

Broken antenna means it goes back to the field repair van. Operator cannot or will not have time to
change it - unlike say on the BC-1000.  What do you do with it on a combat patrol, when the antenna
breaks? -Hue
