Fw: Heathkit Crystal Rcvr CR-1

[Jim Hill]

Hi:  Big bucks is correct, they sell on ebay for high prices.  It's a 
little like finding a cheap SX-88 or KW-1, very unlikely.  However the 
current issue of the Xtal Set Society newsletter includes an article on 
building replicas.  A subscription costs $12.95/year.  Send to Xtal Set 
Society,  P.O. Box 1625,  Norman OK 73070-1625.  Ask for the subscription 
to start with the November 2004 issue, Vol 14, No. 6.  (It's not a monthly 
publication).  Since he is not on-line, the newsletter would be a good link 
to other crystal set enthusiasts
