[Kenwood] [OT] Questions about *VERY* old boat-anchors?

[Mike McCarthy, W1NR]

This should really be posted to the Boatanchors reflector!

I have a Chelsea Transcontinental that uses the classic Armstrong 
regenerative design and 3 '01A's.  I have never found a diagram for it, but 
there are many 3 tube regens from that era that are all virtually identical. 
A look through an early Rider's manual will find you several similar radios 
that will give you a start.  The circuit is VERY simple with only a couple 
of caps, resistors and interstage transformers.
