[TenTec] Ten Tec Tubes sounds great...

[Simmons, Reid W]

The DX60, 60A, & 60B were CW and also AM rigs.  I think the DX-60 looked
better than the "A" or "B" versions.  The price was around $89.95.  The
matching receiver was the HR-10.  "Billions and Billons" of them were sold.

Hi Larry,

You are thinking of the Heathkit DX60B transmitter, and the HG10G VFO.
Nice basic rig in the early 60's.  I saw one at Radio Recyclers here in
Milwaukee, WI, just this past weekend.  They will often appear at hamfests.
 I don't remember any prices.
