 Very interesting find! Is it as broad as the scr274n ? Got any interior shots?

  They were unhappy with their radios?
 I've been working on a post for the German
 FuG-10 EK receiver.  Have one on my bench
 and am very impressed with it.  Barn find.
 I call it "the German SCR-274N."  3-6 MC.
 
 
 Biggest problem was mechanically frozen parts.
 Penetrating oil and patience fixed that. 
 Had to change one resistor to get the BFO
 working.    If anything, the set Is TOO
 well-built.  Must have been monster expensive
 for something which was "expendable."
 It's even "modular" in that you can disassemble
 the set into thee sub-chassis for easy repair.
 I have it running on 12 V fil (you can select
 12 or 24 V.) and 90 VDC batteries.
 The 90 volt draw is a tiny 6 mA.  The external
 speaker has an LM-386 audio amp  powered
 from the 12 V buss. It works very well.
 My only complaint is it has no AVC, but seems
 tolerant of strong signals.

 I am seeking the SK transmitter to mate with it,
 along with the EL and SL  Longwave pair,
 but not for $500 each.  
 Too close to retirement to "mad money."
 Need to make sure Kay and I can eat the 
 good cat food, not that nasty dry stuff. ;-D
 I do have some decent trade material.
 
 More on this on down the log...
