Here is our Rockwell/ Collins KWM-380 HF TRANSCEIVER !
Showing the Receiver, with just a piece of testlead in the ant input.

Love this receiver. Its got its own sound. Used one back in the 80s and would love to own one now.

If I'm not mistaken, using USB rather than LSB to monitor the phone signals would work better at these frequencies.

Collins was a class act and a great product. Rockwell on the other hand is not known for its quality. Hence the end of the days when a Collins receiver was an almost automatic standard.

Man I want one BAD!

When Rockwell took over Collins, the engineer's complained about releasing the KWM-380 too early. This was ignored, and the result was about 20 mods that needed to be done. Had they waited to work out the bugs first, this could have been eliminated.

like using low-grade quality tantalum capacitors...

Awesome!

Looks like a nice AM-FM table radio. The switches sound very clunky and annoyingly noisy. Not at all like classic Collins switchgear.
