One reason that the chassis looks so big is that it appears to be on a 19 
inch chassis.  The original HBR-16 used a much smaller cabinet. I don't know 
that it lacks so many parts, mainly the plug in coils. You probably can't se 
them as they are behind tdhe front panel which you can't see. I am still 
waiting for the one I built in the 1960's with an Eddystone dial to show  up 
on ebay.  It has my call on the front panel but I lost it 20 years ago due 
to my daughter cleaning out her garage while I was overseas.  Jab K5CNZ
