Oh wow! Just found this thread.  Brings me back to early days on this phorum.  I did a 96 back in 2017.  Thread here:

Radio works good and actually seems to have a better high frequency response than some of my early superhets. Probably because the TRF tuning is less selective.

Thanks for the nostalgia, Mike!
