Commentary by N2EY - why HBR folks may be interested:

The Sierra *126B* selective voltmeter may be of interest to the GB and HBR 
folks. It contains two 2215 kc crystal filters of high quality. These are 
essentially identical to the filters in the "Miser's Dream" receiver, and the IF 
strip described in "What's Wrong With Our Present Receivers?"

I don't know if the 125B has the same filters as the 126B. If it does, and 
they're good, somebody has the makings of a pretty decent HF RX even if the unit 
is only good for parts.

No connection with the seller - just don't want to see it go in the dumpster.
