The R-278B/GR is a heavy tube type receiver that was used in military
air traffic control towers. Beside its today's uselessness, in my
opinion it equals R-390A in quality and workmanship.

It's beautiful, BUT it doesn't cover anything much useful, and it's
AM only.

If you threw an FM detector on the end and tweaked it a little, you
might be able to use it on 220 and 440. Or you could put it behind a
downconverter.
