cool, I got mine in August 1963, a DX35 Heath transmitter and Collins 75A1
receiver.
And that all, was without a transmit/receive relay of any kind.

Subject: I Guess I'm an old-timer as well!
Well, My first call was WN8QIY issued to me in March of 1954.
Yes, I also subscribed to the BTI and I wish I still had some of them!
But the amazing thing is that I'm only 39 years old!!!!!
Oh I wish that were true!!
I guess at 76, I am an old ham but I still enjoy it as much as I did in =
1954.
Best 73
