HW-101, When Kit was produced?

[Bradley Stone]

According to Chuck Penson (HEATHKIT: A Guide to Amateur Radio Products) the
HW-100 was produced from 1968 to 1970, and the HW-101 was produced from 1970
to 1983 - a total of 13 years!  The HW-101 may be the most popular
transceiver ever produced - even taking into account the Yaesu FT-101 and
the Kenwood TS-series.

Mine is almost ready for straight-key night, but will check into the vintage
sideband net tomorrow on 20 USB.
