Hi Walt,
Yes, I would like very much to see the picture of the wiring of the
receiver. Of course this is only of academic interest since I have no
intention of bidding. Building one was enough!  I must have walked three
miles winding the coils...but I wouldn't trade the experience for anything!

Thanks for your efforts.
