Was the BC 191 - BC 375 a Lemon ?

by

 

Hello to all from Australia ,
I have a BC 191 here and A few people have said the set was a lemon , not very useable on the ham bands . Does anyone else have a opinion ? The set is a MOPA design using four 211 tubes . I believe the VFO 's in them were very unstable , they certainly are a weird design .

I know some hams did use them on air , but with modified VFO's . Does anyone have details of the mods ?

I plan to install the set in my 1/2 Ton Dodge Command car but need the 12V dynamotor and plugs etc. At least it will look great . The BC 312 is a nice rx , no problems there .

Thanks for any replies , Mike VK3CZ
