[HBR] HBR-14 wanted

[Darrell, WA5VGO]

There's at least one more. I've got one I picked up a couple of years ago. 
It's not a classic example. It uses 85 KC IF transformers and the guy that 
built it substituted some octal tubes for miniatures. He also took some 
pretty big liberties with the layout, although it works fine.
