[TenTec] repairs

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

GM Carl,

I didn't know that.  I've seen these radios but never used one.
My first Collins encounter was with the S-Line and KWM-2 when I was in the
Army.

The "Gold Dust Twins" as it and its matching TX were known by, cost about as
much in adjusted dollars back then as two Hilberling PT-8000s cost today.

The Collins 75A4 did PBT that way.  When you moved the PBT knob, it rocked
both the BFO control and VFO control for simultaneous movement. 
It was all done mechanically.
