General Notes

Note

QST, Jan 1975, p. 164. Retired in late 1978 with the introduction of the 8044. MFJ may have been the first to use the new chip (in its MFJ-8044 keyer announced the September QST,), and Curtis ran ad ad announcing the new chip in QST, Oct 1978, page 204. ** Check hard copy for QST Sep 1978, p. 204 for the references to previous QST articles re the keyer.
