The PM-2A covered 80-40-15 while the PM-2B covered 80-40-20. The PM-3 =
covered only 40 and 20, but had more power (2 transistors in final). The =
PM-3A had semi-break in keying.

  Hi Ken;

  Mine shows "Power-Mite" on the front and PM2 stamped on the rear. =
However, it is supposed to be a PM-3, since it covers 80-4020 meters. I =
beleive the 1 covered 80-40 and the 2 covered 80-40-15 meters.

  We had an enjoyable time at the Ten-Tec H'Fest over the weekend.

  73,
