Hygain 623 (Utopia)

[mechanic]

Any info on this early PLL rig? I have two and some parts from a thir
and would like to begin restoration, not far to go with rebuild th
two!
The 623 is a 23 channel AM/SSB CB transceiver with discrete PL
(several early descrete chips) and is somewhat modifiable. Has mult
turn voice lock, single 12JT6A final with about 15 watts out (PEP)

Although I have never been involved with CB, the Utopia is a very nice
looking rig- patterned after the Hy Gain GT amateur series. I have often
thought it would make a fine 10M vintage rig.
Sorry, no info on the "innards"
