Philco radios' sensitivity numbers.
#1

I am trying to locate sensitivity figures for various Philco sets, like 20, 90 etc.
I never saw them listed anywhere. 
I mean uV/m (mivrovolts per meter) field strength.
For comparison, every Soviet radio sold always had the number shown in the papers, and today is easily obtainable to every single model.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

I've never seen any data. Maybe you can be the first to publish them. Got calibrated generator???

Nope.


Here's an example:

(the radio we had while I was a child, Melodiya)

>>>>>Чувствительность в диапазонах АМ 200 мкВ, УКВ-ЧМ 20 мкВ. 

(Translated: Sensitivity, AM band - 200uV, USW-FM - 20uV).
USW - Ultra Short Waves.

Well, this one

- AM - 50uV, FM - 5uV.

With double heterodyne etc.
