Hi Kees & Darrell...

Well, count me in as one who is building that rig--or at least, a version
thereof...

I have, I believe, ALL of the parts in hand now, but plan on a few changes,
including:

-The addition of a 3rd IF stage;
-A p-p pair of 6AQ5's in the final AF stage;
-A switchable AM diode detector in addition to the product detector, and,
-More than one switchable mechanical/crystal bandpass IF filter.

I'm one project away from starting this one---first up is a 1929-style
superhet, as inspired by Lindsay's piece in the newest issue of THE OLD
TIMER'S BULLETIN. This is the one that uses REAL glow-in-the-dark
bottles...things like 224A's, 227's, & 245's!

Will keep you guys posted---please do likwise for my benefit!
