Gang,
You MAY remember the following:
I've acquired a "peculiar" Hammarlund SP-600.
It is a Model J-11, s/n 9758. [No "X"]
Modified by Northern Radio Company for the Diversity Aspects. NRC
Type 159, Model I, S/N 740.
Tagged Receiver, Radio R-450/FRR-28.
I have finally gotten hard copy documentation for this "animal".
If and when opportunity allows, plus permission from the supplier, a private individual, I hope to do what it takes to get a copy loaded on BAMA.
One item of note in the documentation. The antenna input is designed for 100 Ohm balanced line - in spite of the fact that it IS an SO-239 connector.
