[Milsurplus] R1451A/WLR-6 - One More Time

[Mike Feher]

Hi Al –

 

I think I have four of these WLR-6 receivers. They are great, but, all of mine has a bad front end, which if I remember correctly is a dual gate FET. I also have the schematics someplace that I have not seen in many years. 73 – Mike

Gang,

Is there any documentation on this receiver <http://www.roveroresearch.info/home/boatanchor-radios/r-1451>  beyond what comes up on Google?

I got this RX in 2001, and it worked pretty well, kind of a solid-state SP-600 with a nixie tube readout.  Now, it still tunes, but is profoundly deaf.  It hears  stations at about 0 dBm.

I do have a module-interconnect diagram that's better than nothing.  Let me know if you'd like a copy.  (It's a shame these lists aren't opened up to support reasonable sized attachments.  I can tell the moderator how to do this if he's interested.)

Regards,
Al
