I saw that too Dave but look at the price, and the
HW-7 wasn't exactly a performer, was it?
But yes, I know, I know, the nostalgia, and it's an
unbuilt Heathkit :-)
On a similar tack, I saw a blog posting a few
months ago in which the author bought an unbuilt Heathkit and proceeded to blog
about the building process. I forget what it was - a piece of test equipment I
think. What was a little painful was that he wasn't a particularly
experienced builder, and it hurt a little to see a pristine Heathkit kit
(probably one of only a few of it's kind left) being built in a rather poor
fashion with very untidy point-to-point wiring. On the other hand, you could
argue that it was a tribue to the way that many of them were built!
