Is the Superheterodyne set over rated? It seems to me there were
certain advantages to the OLD ways. Ease of control perhaps not being
one of them.

What was the WORST feature of the Regenerative sets? The BEST feature?

Would it be worthwhile to build a kit?

TenTec and MFJ both offer regen radio kits. I built the TenTec
4-bander a few years ago. A very simple kit and well worth the time to
build. A fun radio to play with about once every 2 years or so, mainly
because the gee-whiz factor doesn't last very long. Still is was worth
the time assembling it.
