    Very nice presentation. You mentioned my father, Leo Jones. He collected a lot of this equipment over the years and, while a lot of it is now in the San Jose Tech museum, I still have a some of it stored in my basement. You mentioned it can’t be sold on eBay, but is there another channel to sell this type of equipment?

    38:00 Looks very like the HT-220 construction and design... LOL! W7RY

      The brilliantly designed HT 220 used totem pole stage construction, that is the stages we're stacked, so the 12 VDC was producing current to feed each decoupled stage, 2 V for Rf, 3V for mixer, 4V for IF ect which is a power saving technique. In other words, the same 1 mA went through all of the series stages. Stacked stages made the 220 very difficult to troubleshoot. We are used to parallel powered stages with each stage getting the same voltage to ground using a lower voltage like 3V to save power. The 220 is totally alien to almost any radio design. But that is why it was ahead of its time. The Bell and Howell was 1 /2 the thickness of an HT220, so the Feds loved it for undercover.

    Now most Police frequencies are
    Encrypted as I have seen over my
    years of scanning since 1970, with
    crystal controlled analog scanners,
    to today's digital mode scanners. 😊

      Low Power Surveillance gear was intended for short range only, and was seldom repeated through a larger police communications system of any kind. Most of it was ordinary narrowband FM at this time.
