Will,

Is it practical to adapt these to work on 80 through 10 meters?

Thanks,
Dan

The ones which use un-etched PC boards, etc. The RF keying in these are generally rats nests and pretty weak circuit wise. Most dont last very long and are for use only with about 5 watts max input and have no SSB capabilities. I am now offering retrofit kits for RF keying, and bias control. Most are made class C only and the ones with any bias are not adjustable only using a diode clamp. I can do these on tie strips or on small PC boards made to mount upright on edge. The tie strips take up the less room. If any are interested in these, give me an e-mail. I'll be glad to help in converting these in any way possible.
