[AMRadio] National Receiver Question
Did National ever make a receiver on which the tuning knob pulled out slightly to become the band switch? If they didn't, who might have made such a mechanical monster? I am trying to help a friend identify a receiver which he has acquired that has this unusual band switch arrangement. All of the model information is gone from the unit. I asked about the National because there is a bit of paper label remaining on the bottom of the unit with the letters "NC." Any ideas? Mike Duke, K5XU American Council of Blind Radio Amateurs
[AMRadio] Book trade?
Tonight as I searched my bookshelves for data on the Command Set transmitters I noticed I have two copies of the "Surplus Radio Conversion Manual - Volume 2" 1948 by Evenson and Beach, and no copies of SRCM Volume 3 -1960 by Bill Orr, or, more importantly for the current BC-458 project, the book "Command Sets" by the Editors of CQ - 1957. I had them at one time - must have loaned them out and never got them back. Anyone interested in a trade of my extra volume 2 for your "Command Sets" book? Or my volume 2 for your volume 3?
