[RTTY] WTB: HAL ST-8000

[Junior]

Kok,
 We used both the 8000 and 8000a in my old military unit, Air Control
Squadron ground tactical type. We used them when we would control those fast
movers F14's-F18's including some of our allies fighters. We would take the
data , send and receive , and send it to the *** via landline ( encrypted ).
Only difference I ever noticed was the 8000 was little faster to tune
(scope).
These were modified by Hal for this application and will not work as ham use
unless it was re-modified. 
I doubt it will copy as good as RITTY. I have not found anything yet that
will.

You probably mean this

Do be aware though, that the ST-8000A does not have nearly the dynamic range
that was the ST-8000's claim to fame.  Neither does it have a tuning 'scope.
