[AMRadio] Heathkit Mohawk RCVR

[charles L.]

Howdy all,

Several years ago a ham buddy rescued a Mohawk RCVR
that was heading for the dump and gave it to me.  Got
a manual for it, recapped where necessary, tuned her
up and she has run fine ever since, except for the
triple diode detector that needs to be wiggled in its
socket now and then.  Does anybody know if this was
the first Heathkit product where part of it was
already built?  The entire front end assembly, band
switch, coils, etc was preassembled, you just dropped
it in and hooked it up.  Did Heath originally offer
this kit with the front end in kit form and builders
had so many problems that Heathkit decided to build it
in house?
