The B&W 6100 was the first synthesized amateur transmitter. There were no free-running oscillators in the 6100. Its synthesizer mixed signals from two banks of 10 crystals each to cover the 80-10 meter bands. A VXO circuit was used to pull the crystals from one bank up to 11 kHz, providing continuous coverage between each of the crystal frequencies. The operating frequency was set using the band switch and the three knobs marked "kilocycles." The 6100 ran 180 watts SSB and CW, and 90 watts on AM.
