The question comes from thinking about some of the questions and ideas
posted here in the last few months. Specifically, what would Ted Cosby
do differently if he were designing an HBR today?

In order to keep the question 'pure,' I rule out whatever thoughts he
might have on integrated circuits, software defined receivers, and the
like: Perhaps like me he got frozen on vacuum tubes a few decades back
and wanted today to do a tube receiver along the old lines but using
the parts available for vacuum tube construction today.

I'm assuming the goals of 'you can build it' and 'it will outperform
most commercial sets of equivalent technology' would stay the same. I
think that would mean keeping the plug in coils.

Beyond that, however, things are less certain.

Thoughts, anyone?
