[Milsurplus] [MMRCG] SR Systems SR-206

[Ray Fantini]

Cool. I have a Sunair SSB/AM all solid state transceiver that was set up to operate on six preset channels and that was one of the biggest hassles in having to build up coils for the different bands. Have one channel on 3885 that was close to all the old CG Marine channels but had to build coils for sixty meters. Fortunately  all that stuff produced back in the seventies had plenty of space internal and was easy to work on and I did have the benefit of a manual with tables for the coils and capacitors.
Have a New, at least new to me PRC-74 that I intend to be using this weekend at Gilbert and have used the Sunair in the past, it will be there as a standby radio.

Ah Ray, but the fun-filled hours reverse-engineering the  thing without a schematic is such a great learning experience ;-) Here's mine:
