Congratulations, Bob! Very impressive and interesting find, indeed.
I really like your photos and description.
BTW, there has been a recent series of articles in ER on a vintage SSB
receiver and transmitter built along the same lines as your find, except that
there is a direct frequency readout on at least one of the two. Furthermore,
they can be connected together to form a complete 20 meter transceiver.
The author found that the rear, VFO tuning, capacitor was a far better tuning
capacitor than either of the other two.
