Hi Don,
I replyed to the question with the save advice before I saw your post.
Seems to me I recall getting the same advice from you 20 years ago when
I got my BC610 on the air.
You don't think we're getting old do you? ;-)

I am nearing completion of my 20V-3 for 75M and was wondering what
VFO's are available that easily interface with the 20V-3.
The 1.5-3.0 mHz PTO unit from a T-195 or T-368 would work. I use a
modified T-368 PTO/exciter unit as an all- band VFO unit. With the
bare PTO, you will need to mechanically mount it in something and
provide a power supply. Just be careful not to run the unit all way
to the end of the tuning range. With any of the Collins-type PTO's,
if you run it all way to the end, far enough to feel mechanical
resistance at the shaft, you have already permanently damaged the
internal tuning mechanism.
