General Notes

Note

QST, Mar 1969, p. 4. This is an update of the HQ-105TR. The HQ-205TR was advertised as a transceiver, but in reality was a general-coverage receiver sharing its cabinet with a 5 watt, crystal-controlled transmitter. The six-channel AM transmitter could be used on either the Citizen's Band or the 10 meter amateur band. The 11-tube receiver tuned 540 kHz–30 MHz. References Brief description. Popular Electronics, Mar 1967, p. 22.
