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.
