Hello Bill,

Yes, they were produced in 1946 and 1947.  I have seen them at hamfests.

Cardwell Capacitor is still in business.  They are owned by Pax Mfg. Co.,
which owns Hammarlund and Gonset.

It is dipicted as being a very modern looking rcvr with a lot of features for the time. Advertised freq. coverage was up to 54 mc. Anyone know if any were really produced. Just curious...tnx, 73 de Bill K4JYS
