Heathkit HW-100 or SB-100

[Charles W. Morehouse]

Hi Bill,
Have restored lots of Heathkits including the 101's.  Not a good idea to 
modify one for 160M.  You would have to wind new coils.  There is no 
room for a 160M tank coil.  Suggest you consider other options such as 
one of the 80M mono banders.  I have a partially working HW-101 that you 
could have reasonably
if you want to peruse that option.  Luck and 73.
