The exceept for the Hammarlund HQ145X receiver, the radios shown below used to be part of my collection but they have all been sold.
HQ 145X RECEIVER
Originally, this HQ145 was not fitted with the crystal calibrator option. When I ordered one in 1965, I remember month after month of delays and Hammarlund kept telling my local dealer that production schedules for the Vietnam war were interfering with civilian orders. After all these years, this unit is still in pristine condition. |

FR12
Made by Canadian Marconi in 1944, this unit was capable of transmitting on low wave (375 to 580 kHz) or short wave (1700 to 4200 kHz) depending on the model type. On receive, it could tune from 300 to 4200 kHz continuously. Power input was 15 watts on CW, less on MCW and even less on phone. Input power to the FR12 was 12 volts DC at 6 amps on receive and 13 amps on transmit. The Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) used this unit for administrative communications among ships in company during the 1950's and 60's.
