[Boatanchors] Embarrassing Rookie Question

[rbethman]

Joe,

I'd hunt for an R-42 Reproducer.  It is fully contained Bass Reflex speaker.

It is made for Hallicrafters and/or other boatanchor gear.

However, I do NOT know how it would work with this particular National.  
You'd have to get input from others.

Regards, Bob - N0DGN

I recently did that with a Patterson PR-12 and it worked out very nicely. I doubt that I'll get lucky enough to find the proper National speaker at any hamfests this year.
