Didn't Collins make a little crystal-controlled novice rig that they sold
under another name?  I'm trying to remember and I have this very distinct
memory of a line of such rigs--think they sold as kits, but I'm not sure
about that.  I have this vague idea that Collins actually produced them, but
because they didn't cost $500, they wouldn't put their name on them.

Now I'll take people back a way.  I bet Don Bishop may be the only one
that remembers this:  the first transmitter I used as a Novice was a
Harvey-Wells Bandmaster  (the TBS50 series -- I had the D).
Crystal-controlled, of course, though one could plug in a VFO.  CW and AM,
80 thru 2-meters.  Used a 807 final.
