The Quim 2 was in a class by itself as a single unit (plus power
supply) box in terms of overall usability but...it's a SSB only, ham
band only rig practically speaking.

Drake and Collins separates that intertransceive are fine, but not
really a "transceiver".

Heathkits worked well when properly assembled. Few were. Some can be
straightened out with patience. The use of soldering flux and good
technique can rescue some.
