I asked George B. once what `ST` stood for as in Chinese ST generator head, but quickly forgot.  For the life of me I cannot even conceive of a meaning that seems to make sense using these two letters.

Some Trouble?
Second Troublefree?
Saves Time?
Saves Taxes?
Sans Transformer?
Synchronous Tone?
Sweet Thing?

If  they really wanted to hype these they could call `em ` RA`,  touted as having a `Revolutional Armature`design.  How`z that for missing a marketing opportunity?   ;D

Anyone know?

I believe it was the designer, a Mr. Stanford. Where this came from I can't recall and might be completely wrong. Sans Transistors? :)
