That is sure a possibility, but on the other hand, there could be a
surplus of old TVs that they could be salvaged from!

Thanks for the info. That shows how much I studied the drawing! So
it's just Y6 that would be needed to QSY! That means that the PSK-**
radios would be a lot easier to use for APRS or voice use than the
80M Warblers - which I had actually studied!
