[AMRadio] Anybody for the HBR Receiver?

[Mike Duke, K5XU]

Something  said in the thread of boat anchor receivers reminded me of 
the HBR receiver that I once operated at a friend's shack about 35 
years ago.

This one had plug in coils for 80, 40, and 20 meters, and I'm pretty 
sure also had selectable sideband in addition to AM.

Thinking of that very sensitive, great sounding receiver caused me to 
wonder how many different units Ted Crosby created in his HBR series.

I know that he had a four tube receiver published in the first edition 
of "How to Become a Radio Amateur in the early 1950s, but the one I 
saw was a later model from the early 60s.
