A modern day Q 5R !

Mad Man Muntz came to mind....



But he was known for taking things out, while the scheme in the original
(it's been so long) seems way overly complicated. After all, the Q5er
was adding selectivity to a lousy receiver, while this uses a whole
shortwave receiver when only a BFO is needed, and that receiver doesn't
have better selectivity than the main receiver.

It seems more like a Rube Goldberg scheme.
