Default Re: HAC SW Single Valve

Hi there.

The diagram you show is for a model C I see from the front page, I made one of these in the early 60's. It was an ally chassis about 6 by 4 with a similar size front panel. I seem to remember it had a bandset and bandspread tuning cap, HL2 triode, I guess it must have been 2v LT and 60 to 90v HT but I can't remember how this was acheived.

In spite of a 100ft aerial and a big iron rod bashed into the ground - I think it was the sawn out sideframe of an old bedstead, it was fairly useless at receiving much. Not as good as my excellent Selena B210 anyway, but that is no surprise!

No idea about the set you show, unless it's a homebuilt one. Looks interesting though - well worth some attention.
