[Milsurplus] Optical dial scale projection

Hi John and the group,

Better late than never ...
At a local auction recently I saw a fine console receiver by E.H. Scott with
a projection dial and bandswitching.  I don't have a model number, but it
was clearly a high end product, probably not many made, evidently from the
1930s.  It sold for over $1000.
Perhaps someone is familiar with Scott radios from that era.
73,
David Edsall, W1TDD
