That's just plain purty.  I almost had a control head for mine but it
escaped before I was able to order it.  At the moment, all I have is the
radio sans dynamotor and the mount.  Aside from the hardware, I'm also shy
the information to figure out what coils I have, what I need to do to them
to make them useful, crystal range & harmonics and other tuning info.  

A thought just scurried across my fuzzy little brain in vain search of
another.  Left to its own devices, the separation between the paired
channels using the same plug-in coil sets can be no more than 2%.  Something
I've wondered about is if maybe a little under the chassis jiggery pokery
using trimmer caps or ??? might not enable that separation to be a little
broader.

Best regards,

My bank has a new service where they will text you your balance.  It's cool
but I don't think they should add “LOL” at the end.
