Hi Mike,

That was my suspicion, but I couldn't prove it.  Thanks for the 
reference.  If others need to grab that from ARRL the title of the 
article will help:  "A Multi-Range Receiver With Four Tuned Circuits By 
Robert S. Kruse"

Also the add scan in the Ebay listing is quite high quality, and worth a 
"save image as."

BTW, the 24's were screen-grid tubes (tetrodes) providing a lot more 
gain that triodes.

Thanks,
Al
