Here's an interesting kit. An unbuilt Knight Ocean Hopper, watch out for
the sticker shock:

I can only imagine where this one is going Steve. Here's my version- a lot
cheaper- and more stable:

But alas, it's still not an Ocean Hopper..

That's a darn nice receiver, Dale. What does it cover?
Hi Steve,
I have never wound up the LW coil but the receiver is capable of
100KHz-30MHz. Like most regens, it can be a little finicky tuning, but still
lots of fun to play with. For serious work I use my version of Pete KE9OA's
HF RX:

How much does one of those run? Looks interesting.

Hi Steve,
Only available by building your own. Here's the link:

The nice thing about building your own is that you can incorporate the
features you need- AM sync, additional filters etc. And build it the way you
want. The RX is pretty much surface mount so quite robust. I used mil spec
switches, teflon wiring and all stainless hardware etc.
Pete did a very nice design job.
