   If the owner is a Ham He better not be transmitting at the bottom of the   
   CW section of the 2 Meter Band.   
      
   Before my TR-9130 went Belly Up I made a CW QSO or Two with it, and used   
   it for SSB too.   
      
   One time when I was driving through Tennessee I had a SSB QSO with that rig.   
      
   It was a nice XCVR but it started changing the Frequency I was Listening at   
   or Talking on to 144.000 Mc/s so I sent it away to be fixed.   
      
   I wish it could had been repaired, I told the Serviceman to keep it,   
   He said that He would put it in His JUNQUE Pile.
