The HQ-129-X is DONE. I am listening to WSM in Nashville, to The Grand Old Opry. The set is hooked to my outdoor antenna and ground. It is the best receiver I have worked on. I now remember why I love Hammarlund general coverage receivers. It is connected to my Emerson bookshelf speaker, and sounds great. More important, the reception is everything I remember, better than any of my radios, except perhaps my Scott SLRM, but I would have to test them side by side. Just from my memory I would say they are VERY close, but would give the edge to this Hammarlund. I will make a video of it working soon. This is what it looks like working.
