General Notes

Note

QST, Aug 1972, p. 143. QST, May 1973, p. 173. QST, Feb 1974, p. 126. QST, Jun 1975, p. 146. QST, Jan 1976, p. 90. QST, Jan 1977, p. 157. As late as 1977, if you still had an old Gonset Communicator hanging about, Palomar enabled you to use it on FM. The FM modulator plugged into the crystal socket and mic jack of the Communicator, requiring no modi-fications to the Gonset. A built-in tone burst encoder was a $10.00 option.
