[Boatanchors] Viet Cong Homebrew radio set

[Al Klase]

Hi Bill,

I have occasionally seen double-tuned transistor IF's similar to what 
you describe, but with the two coils under a single rectangular shield.  
The double-tuned transformers give much improved selectivity, but aren't 
often seen in consumer radios.

&3,
Al
