A T-4 was an early 4 Series transmitter that had no PTO or BAND
Oscillator. It was only able to transmit in TRANSCEIVE under RCVR
control with an R-4(any), or under crystal control. There is a photo
of one on the front cover of the T-4X manual, and the schematic is in

Yes, it was.
I could convert my T-4X back to T-4 if a front panel can be obtained, and
increase the resale value. hi.
My special edition T-4X's ser# is 0274, so I am guessing there are about 250

Well this is your lucky day...
How about a brand new T4 front panel (unpunched) , chassis (bare), inner

And what might
The NOVICE prohibition was still in effect when I had my
Novice license back in 1967,The T4 had provisions on the
side for one fixed crystal to be inserted, could be used for
Novice. But when mated to the R4, it was VFO only. The
TR-44 with a T4 had provisions on the side for up to 10

OK, thanks. I got my Novice in 1957, but didn't know how long the
prohibition lasted. I got my General about four months after my Novice,
so didn't have to worry about it! :-)
I knew the 2-NT was definitely addressed to the crystal controlled
Novice licensee, and has
I must have been on the tail end of the novice VFO ban. I was licensed in
the early summer (May, I think) of 1972, and STILL had that requirement.
I'm not sure when it was actually lifted. Fun times, sending CQ on 15m and
hunting the entire novice segment for a reply, HI. I only had a

All I had were a couple of 80 meter crystals - try to work all states on
one frequency - it is a chore that I have yet to finish and now they shifted
the 80 meter band! Then I found a VF-1 and was able to do a lot more.

used to swap xtals periodically so we could operate new frequencies.
The best part of getting the General license was being able to then use a VFO.
That was a GREAT motivator!

I qualified for my Novice ticket in the 70s after VFOs were allowed. When I
subsequently passed my Advanced Class exam, I was amazed - all that space!
