Unique Heathkit items?

I have a pair of IB-1 (one may be an IB-1B, can't tell the 
difference) as well as a General Radio 650 of which that Heath is a 
clone.  BAMA has the manuals. IB-1 in the dreaded dju format, the 
IB-1B in pdf.

Great old blonde wood slant-front cases.  One has the battery leads 
going outside the case.

I believe these actually use the General Radio 1 KHz hummer.  One of 
mine spent a tour of duty at West Point Military Academy according to 
the spray paint logo on the side.

Cool pieces still useful today, but, as you noted, not very common.

73,
