You need a copy of "Shortwave Receivers Past and Present".  Outlines pretty 
much all of that.

Out of print right now but used copies are available from time to time on 
Amazon.  But be prepared to spend big bucks...it's a sought after reference 
and the used copies are high.

I've been looking for one myself...the latest one.

New one is being printed for release this summer I heard.
