It looks like a dogs breakfast.

If the Muller-mod has repeater shift it might be nice on 10m.

Yes it was a shame it was fitted with a very simple analog VFO unlike Jentec's digital VFO's

Thanks Bernado !

There was on youtube a "vfo' guy believe from Switserland, who had some documentation (test) of the mulller elec. company.
he could "copy" the tekst and send it to another one who had interest.

Well, beeing a VFO collector myself i have interest in those old test documents hihi.
I tried to contact him...but no answer so far.

Anyway...keep up the good work ...and keep those VFO rigs safe !

Kind regards,

Henry HPSD

if i remember right his 515 worked when he bought it, but he had to fiddle and it was sold as not working (typical ashtec)
i think he tried to change the VFO or something, so thats one less in the world :)
he also bought my 515 off me, which had no VFO so he might still have the parts.
i have a few WKS type rigs in the loft for scrap..
