Thanks remembering the Tejas RF Backpacker transceivers.  Yes, the basic 
Backpacker receiver design was based on the W7EL core unit.  Hard to improve 
on the basic W7EL although various bells and whistles were added, including 
the VFO with HFO, and additional audio filters, etc.
I have all of the above still operational and on the shelf to use "at 
leisure".
