They did the same thing with the HD-4040.  It was just a packaged
version of the Tucson Amateur Packet Radio group (TAPR) TNC-1.  In
fact, many did as I did and bought the Heath cabinet and power
transformer (which I think Heath offered as a package) to "finish" my
TAPR pc board.  The TAPR board just dropped right into the Heath
cabinet.
