[Heath] SB 610 and SB 401 questions

[GALE STEWARD]

You do NOT need the xtal pack in the SB-401 to operate split.
I have a 301/401 that I've used for years. Works fine to do split frequencies and there is no xtal pack in the 401.

I have my 301/401 modified so that I can also transceive using the 401 LMO, as well as the 301 LMO. A pretty easy mod.

 I don't think that's right...because I've run split....and I don't have the xtal pack....

Yes and no. You can use the SB 401 without the crystal pack if you operate with the SB 300, SB301 and SB303 receivers, with the pair in transceiver mode on the same frequency. If you ever want to operate in "split" mode, the SB 401 using its own LMO to control the transmit frequency, then you need the optional crystal pack. 
  And yes, if you use the SB 401 without a Heath receiver, the you also need the crystal pack.

 I think you only need the xtal set for the 401 if you're NOT using it with a matching receiver...i.e. and SB-300,301 or 303...I think you can even use the 401 as a "separate" on a different frequency when using one of these receivers and it will still work...

 Subject: RE: [Heath] SB 610 and SB 401 questions      Jim, forgive me if I’m being obvious but a “crystal pack” for an SB-401 can be obtained from any Heath transceiver. I’ve been buying up HW-101’s for parts, such as the crystal sets, as the crystals do at times fail and HW-101 parts rigs are fairly plentiful and cheap. Chuck Penson in his Heathkit book, estimates that Heath made nearly 30, 000 HW-101 kits! Also, all SB-400’s came with the full set of  crystals so if you can find an SB-400 parts rig, your good to go.       From: Heath [mailto:heath-bounces at puck.nether.net] On Behalf Of Jim's

 Subject: [Heath] SB 610 and SB 401 questions      I have a SB 610 that needs a new screen. Is there anyone that has one for sale or can describe how to refurbish the one I have?  Also I am looking for a xtal set for a SB 401     Thanks 73  Jim K8DHC
