My first "real" receiver was an HQ-129X (had one of the war surplus
aircraft radios for 80m first). Loved it. Reworked the RF stage with a
circuit that plugged into the tube socket. Sold it when I downsize, but now
have a HQ-140X that I need to use! Boatanchor is an understatement when it
comes to the weight of these receivers---on the other hand all that metal
makes them what they are!
