[Milsurplus] Thought on the BC-221 and QST

[B Smith]

The set makes an excellent VFO and no modifications are required.
See March 1947 QST.

Amen !
    Well put and I'm sure your comments harmonize with  most of us who 
love
to putter with the old stuff, yet recognize the utility this  old 
stuff
offers us who still like to build stuff and make use of the nifty 
parts in
these gadgets.  The LMs are especially attractive containers for  all 
kinds of
variable RF things.  The front panel layout of the LM and BC  221 
alone can
inspire one to build all kinds of things without doing much if any 
metal
work.  And of course those wonderful caps and gears will never lose 
their
usefulness no matter how much the state of the art diminishes the need 
for  L/C
oscillators.
