38-15 Chairside Antenna
#2

Hi Rob,
I've had a few of those style sets and have found them to have good sensitivity. Could have a weak tube or two. If you can't put up an outside ant a loop or active loop would be a good alternative. The type of building construction your in can diminish reception if it's something like steel and concrete.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got it!

Terry
