37-116X Delux with BFO
#6

TonyJSenior Wrote:I've also ordered the AMT3000 and eagerly awaiting for it to come to assemble it. I've also heard lots of good things about this unit and looking forward to broadcasting old time radio programs to my radios. I've got a reproduction cathedral that I've used with an iPod and cassette adapter, but it's not the same as hearing it through a unit that actually played it when it was 'live'.

I hope you have good eyes and a steady hand. I had to buy a lighted magnifier to see what was going on. I have built many heath kits in the past and I have to say SStran makes a great kit. The only weak link are the knobs as they do not fit the shafts correctly and they wobble when turned. They are tight but slightly off center. No big deal but if this was not the case the kit would be perfect.

It's not what you don't know that hurts you it's what you know that's not so.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
