[TVARC] Heathkit

[Sam Brown]

 I built the SB-401, SB-303 and used them for many years.  Also built some of the test equipment.  Fun and they all worked very well.Sam kb8sb

 I built a HW16 all CW transceiver and loved it as a kid!

I built the HW-32A (20M SSB xcvr) and owned a couple of used Heathkits (SB-200 and a Sixer). 
I also built a couple of Knight-Kits in the 60s (including my Novice xmtr, the T-60). Since then, it’s been mostly a series of QRP rigs, the Elecraft K2 being the most ambitious.

I’ve built a Twoer, an Apache transmitter, and some kind of HiFi receiver.

 

Who else?

Thanks, John. Who among us hasn’t built, or owned, a Heathkit? Sounds like a fun book.

Many of you have been around 

long enough to remember the old 

Heath equipment, probably most 

of you may have built some of it. 

 

I just wanted to make you aware 

of the availability of a book entitled 

"Heathkit, a guide to amateur radio 

products." I ordered a copy this 

past weekend and received it today. 

 

In it is information on anything you  

might ever want to know about any 

Heathkit amateur radio product that  

was ever produced. 

 

It is well written, printed on very 

high quality paper. Although a soft 

cover, the book is physically quite 

heavy, but more important, it is an 

incredible read for anyone who grew 

up with their products. It is over 400 

pages in length. 

 

Google it, you'll get more information. It is available directly from the author 

for a price of $34.95 plus $5.00 

shipping. It is a delightful piece of 

work. 

 

Just FYI, 

73, 

John, NP2B
