Default Re: Marconi C100 B28 vs. Eddystones

The DST100 was a secret radio whose existence was kept hush-hush until long after it had been left far behind. It was said to be lousy for tuning around, searching, but great for sitting on a difficult signal.

THe other radio which was confidential for many years was the Collins R390. Get a load of all the gears and cams in the permeability tuned preselectors!
