ECHO 70 KLM transceiver manual
http://6mt.com/432_tech_list.

AMSAT-BB Archives - 1999.
http://www.amsat.org/amsat/archive/amsat-bb/199902/msg00267.html

There was a Belcom list (reflector) on Yahoo! Groups. Belcom made quite a
few monobad rigs for 20m, 15m, 10m, 6m, 2m, and 70cm, some of which were
sold in the U.S. and Canada under the Santec, KLM, and SBE names as well. 
Many of their radios were QRP rigs.
Majority made in 1970s, early 1980s.

KLM Electronics

SBE wasn't interested in marketing a prototype transceiver they had
developed, KLM approached its maker, Belcom, and changed the name from Liner
2 to the ECHO II.

This, and the ECHO 70, became KLM's entry point into the VHF/UHF transceiver
marketplace.

The Echo 70 looks a lot like the Belcom Liner 430 but Google doesn't
show a manual for that...

Hi Greg et all...

The link is 404ed...you need to go to 6mt.com's main page and chose the
440 Technical section...evidently there was a 6 meter conversion for
this radio somewhere.

BTW,

Belcom NO LONGER mfg. radios and the Yahoo Group has folded.

Name: Belcom; Tokyo (J)
Abbreviation: belcom
Summary: Belcom;

Brand name of:
Nikon Dengyo Co. Ltd.
4-10, I-Chome Kaga, Itabashi-Ku,
Tokyo, Japan
(1970's).



A small company producing HAM radio equipment, especially for VHF/UHF ranges
("Liner" series).   Last radios (Hand-helds/HTs) they mfg. were made in
mid-1980s.

Nikon Dengyo Co. Ltd built VHF amateur radios for KLM in the mid to late
1970's.

IF you have a SPECIFIC question, you may want to contact Jim Eagleson, WB6JNN,
who worked for KLM during this period when Belcom was making radios for
KLM (Belcom's Liner 2 became the KLM ECHO II in the USA).
