(160 meter unit not included here) 114: 20 meters 129: 10 meters 140: 160 meters 175: 75 meters CAP: 2374 kHz Lysco's A(B)-series monoband mobile transmitter covered 160–10 and 11 meters. They used clamp tube modulation. Each band was available in two models: The "A" versions used three 6AQ5 tubes, and the "B" versions used three 6V6 tubes. Peak input power was 25 watts. The transmitters were housed in rounded-corner cases and had a stylish, more finished appearance than earlier models. Knobs replaced the screw adjustments for the oscillator and amplifier used in previous Lysco monobanders (Lysco 129 and 175). Any version was $29.95 without tubes, or $33.55 with.
