    Pye Telecom PF1 on 70cm

    Back in the late 1960s these were revolutionary radios bringing
    communications to beat policemen.
    A few found their way on to 70cm although they were only about 50mW. Years
    ago I built a 2m super-regen RX in a PF1 RX case.
    See the Pye Telecom History website for details.
