[HBR] HBR-16

[Kees & Sandy]

Clint, Wonderful construction .....really looks nice. I have added it to the HBR pictures. Looks much better than the pill bottles and great that you got some nice forms. Pretty good work for a 93 year old builder. Congratulations !!  With this email, I pass on your note of thanks to the guys who supplied the Amphenol forms. Great group and HBRs are STILL out there and going strong. I need to take some pictures of and describe a "new" HBR-13C I acquired recently.....built into a slightly larger (wider) cabinet (which I may still reduce in width if I can figure out how to do it), but it's got "The Eddystone 898 Dial" .  73 Kees K5BCQ

Hi Robert. a while back, while constructing my HBR 16, you printed a picture of my receiver using pill bottles for coils. A lot of hams evidently saw this picture and came to my rescue. They sent me, free of charge enough clear plastic forms to finish the job. If any of those us guys read this, I want to thank them for their generous gifts.Thanks to you, Robert for printing that picture ( it is number 231 on your list of builder notes). I am attaching a picture showing the factory coil forms being used.\\\\\\\\Clint, k4krb
