What were the differences between the DX-100 and the DX-100B?

Was there a DX-100A?


No, they went straight from the plain to the B model.

Differences:

100 - 4 crystals or VFO, switched from front panel
100B - 1 crystal with switch inside cabinet

100B - chassis punched for connectors for the SB10 SSB adapter

100 - course loading and fine loading control
100B - larger gear driven loading capacitor

100- knobs point with narrow white lines
100B - knobs point with white triangles

100- multi piece cabinet
100B- one piece cabinet with hinged hatch on top
for access to the crystals

book, "Heathkit, A guide to the Amateur Radio Products"
