References Brief description. Electronics World, Apr 1961, p. 126. (Hammarlund) Brief description. Electronics World, Jul 1961, p. 106. (Outercom) QST, Feb 1964, p. 99. Originally made by Hammarlund and designated the Outercom. By July 1961 (only three months after the first ad) the units were being made by Outercom Electronics. Aimed at industrial clientele, no doubt some of this stuff ended up in ham shacks.
