You tuned it for one channel or set of freqs at a time, using a variant of
thumb wheels/kind of like bat handle switches, except they weren't actually
either one.
The advantage of such a unit is that using it you had a completely frequency
adjile/although only one channel at a time, radio,
without having to russel up, if you could even find them, at 5$s minimum per
send and or receive/to rocks per channel, xtals.
GLB Synthecizer, that's what it was, although don't know the particular
nomenclature, will try to find more, dd.
