[Hallicrafters] WWV Receiver - Need Documentation.

How about a Specific Products WWVR?

Only 13 tubes, so it doesn't seem to be what Dave has (Though I'll send the 
schematic, Dave, if you like).

Rack mount and plug-in LC modules for three frequencies.  Also three audio 
frequencies to beat against the signal.  Tuning tube and built-in speaker.

The tag says that it works well (doesn't everything?), but I've never 
actually tried it.
