Info in mil. receiver needed
 

I'm not sure if this is the right place, so please advise if I should be
posting this elsewhere. I'm into restoring vintage commercial radios,
Philco, Zenith, etc., and a friend asked me to try to find some info on an
ancient military receiver for him. All he can find on the name plate is
RME6900 Receiver. I am assuming this is a code number refering to the unit
type and manufacturer. Anybody out there with knowledge of this receiver?
Where can I go for more info? Thanks in advance.

Ancient? The RME stuff is fairly new. It's not military gear, though,
but more cheaply made stuff for the ham radio market.

It was an Amateur receiver. RME was the manufacturer and 6900 was the
model.

Do a google search for RME 6900 and you will get over 500 hits, which
should provide you plenty of data on this receiver.

Yes this is the perfect group. The RME is a vintage 1950-60s Ham Radio
receiver, a fairly good set with precise tuning. --Mike K.
