I used my Eico 720 (1960 through 1965) in both positions once I 'graduated'
from the Novice class in 1961.
I had three crystals on 40 Meters which tripled to 15 Meters that were used
in the CW bands.
I constructed the Knight Kit VFO for use in the 'phone bands together with
the Eico 730 plate modulator.
The 6146 final produced a great 65 Watts of plate modulated AM
transmissions.
Memories!!!!!!!!!!! But I sure wouldn't trade my K3s and accessories for
that setup.

Raymond,
You reminded me that I also have some old stuff with a slide switch -- I
remember that my Eico 720 transmitter has a slide switch for VFO/Crystal
usage. But, I have never used that slide switch, I have no idea if it works
or not. It is in the crystal usage position -- I never did have a VFO.

FYI slide switches.
I still have Heathkit equipment like my AR15 stereo am/fm receiver that
has slide swithches. I built this amp in 1961 and the slide switches still
working including the power slide switch in my SB-200 linear. If the slide
switch is a good quality they will last many years.
