Back in the 1960s I really wanted a Heathkit Twoer transceiver. In those days most people on 2m used AM and the band was quiet. It used a sensitive super-regen RX, but these were broad. In their day they were fine. Looking back I am amazed how bad they were!
Versions were made for 10m 11m CB and 6m too.
To this day I still like the style. They were known as the "Benton Harbour Lunchboxes" as they resembled a lunchbox.
In their day they were "state of the art".
