    Just out of curiosity, why on God's green earth would it be required
to make three models of a general coverage receiver in the first place? 
Wouldn't it be cheaper even still to have just one mask set for one lousy
CPU, to go from 100 kc/s to 29.999 mc/s, avoiding the service/reprogramming
issue entirely?

    Then again, mabye the Australians are on to something.. sure isn't much
below 2.000 mHz here, either (at least down to 540 kc)       -:)
