Hi Neil:
Isn’t it a great thing to power up a radio
that hasn’t been used in a while!
You have the skills to do what needs to
be done to get everything right again.
I have never heard of that receiver, but
it sounds like a special rig.
I have a forty year plus collection of radios.
But in trying to remain low key with my
ham setup – I have a small operating position,
and I change the radios once in a while.
It is really fun to bring a rig out of storage
and rediscover it.
By the way. You talked about overload when
listening to your Part 15 AM signal. I had a
small portable AM receiver (don’t remember
what it was) that would go completely silent
when placed next to my Part 15 AM antenna.
(Even when the volume was turned way up.)
At first it would distort, and then the sound
would disappear.
Best Wishes,
