SX-101A

[Rodger]

Hi Chris,

Most of the converters are going to work fine with your SX-101A.  A lot 
of the converters output to the 10 meter band which means either 
covering only part of the 6 and 2 meter bands or using extra crystals 
for full coverage.  The SX-101A converter band is from 30.5-34.5 which 
would allow some converters to cover the complete 6 and/or 2 meter band 
without crystal change.  You should be fine with any of the later 
converters, at worst you might have to either change the crystal in the 
converter and retune the output transformers.

In summary, if the converter is set up for output on 10 meters then it 
will work fine with your SX-101A as is but you may only get coverage of 
part of the band but typically this would be the lower 2 megahertz which 
is probably what you want.  If you wish, you could probably change the 
crystal and retune the output to work with your SX-101A converter band 
to cover the entire band but this really isn't necessary.
