Doug,
According to Rich Arland in his book Low Power Communication, only 800+
were ever made. I don't know what the "+" means. Manufacturers never start
their serial numbers with 1; 100 is more likely. So you must have one of
the last. He goes on to say "so prices on these rigs are extremely
high." I didn't find that to be true; I sold one from an estate. I would
call them "overpriced." An analog Triton-IV will go down in power from 100
to essentially zero watts, has a better receiver, makes a fine QRP rig, and
costs much less.
73,
Chas

Does anyone know how many of these rigs were ever produced? The serial
number of my rig is #822 and I think that perhaps only 1,000 were ever
produced. Many thanks.
