Have you ever tuned a regen? I haven't.
Regens aren't difficult to tune. Generally, turn the regen control to
about
1/2, find the station you want, then turn the regen control up until it
breaks into oscillation, then back it off just until the oscillation
stops.
It's phenomenal how much gain you can get with one. I had an old 4 band
superregen radio that could hear signals my superhets couldn't.
But isnt regen a factor of selectivity rather than sensitivity? If your
superhets had the selectivity the regen had, I bet they would have sounded
better.
