S-38 vs. HW-16

[Sandy Blaize]

    The old S-38 or most of the simple superhets are quite deaf.

    My one tube Frank Jones 1936 regen. receiver (single '19
tube) will run
rings around the S-38 and have some excess!  Too bad no one built
a
scaled down shrunken version of the RCA "RAL-7" receiver!  Two
TRF
stages, regen. detector and two AF stages.  Excellent set, even
by today's
standards......if you don't mind keeping a "logging scale
settings" book!

73,
Sandy W5TVW
