The SM-220/230 scope sounds very much like the Heathkit Pan-adapter, from back in the 60's. Had one on my 2 meter rig (AM). Since most of us were crystal controlled, it made finding a reply to a CQ very easy. Not having a chance to use a band scope on HF (other than the one on my O7) I am not sure have helpful it would be.

Old memories...

Having bought a TS-950sdx specifically to use the matching

SM-220 or SM-230 scope, I know what a real time, actual

trace bandscope looks like.  It is so much better and more

handy than any of the things offered today, including K3,

ORION, and 9000 because , among other reasons, the 950

system did not stop scanning when u tuned but u could

actually see you move toward a sig pip in uninterrupted

real time.  Unfortunately, the SM-230 had to be hooked

to a TS-950, so I sold the whole system.
