but need a set of crystals to do so.


QUESTION: Does anyone know of a source for Heathkit SB series crystal
sets aside from E-Bay?

Well, you didn't specify new or used...but I'm sure you know about
International Crystals (and other suppliers of new crystals). The only
problem may be that a set of new crystals will cost you at least half of
what the radio is worth.

Or, look around for a junker/parts 400 or 401.


I like this idea better, plus you;ll have a parts rig to boot:-)
They are around, just gotta search 'em out!
