With the proper crystals for the SWBC bands, an R-4B makes
a very nice receiver.
PBT, preselector, IF notch, etc.

And, as always, don't let your children attend Louisville
Technical Institute. They've hired at least one dufus who
once claimed to have a PhD, and who knows, there may be
more dufi there.
I had an R-4C for a while, it didn't work too well, it
needed work. I
was able to sell it almost instantly for a nice profit. I
would like to find another one, that actually works well,
again some day. But I would rather have a Hammarlund HQ-180A
instead.
Thought I'd pass this along... but be warned, it's a HEFTY
price:

Thanks, but I have no money for any new toys right now. Besides,
turning the HQ-100 on alone makes this room about 5 degrees
warmer in the spring and summer, enough to take it from "okay" to
"miserable". A bigger tube rig would end up being a very heavy
paperweight.
You would not know what to do with it.
Poor Telemundoh, tripping the kook fantastic. I have to ask you a
serious question, do you really think I don't have the receivers I
claim to have? I've been listening to SW radio for about 45 years,
Telemundoh, and have owned many top of the line receivers, and still
own several.
Are you really that far gone you can't look at my old posts? Well, it
shouldn't surprise me, with your Obama BC delusions and all.
What a kooktard. Your only comment on a classic tube radio is it makes
the room to warm in the summer and it's a paper weight. Poor baby.
