Hi Group

Does anyone know where I can find any info on a Marconi MSL-5
receiver ? I have checked with a few manual vendors as well as
did a google search with no luck. It appears to be a dual receiver,
covering 15 kcs to 1500 kcs in 5 bands.

Tube layout is 2 - 6K7 metal tubes, 1 - 38 glass and 1 - 6F7 glass.
There is also a cats whisker detector under the top cover at the front
of the radio. Two headphone jacks on the front panel, one labelled
xtal headset and the other just says headset. There are two main
tuning capacitors and two 5 position band switches. Looks like two
seperate receivers in the one cabinet. One using the tubes and the
other a simple xtal set.

Interesting piece of technology. I suspect mid 1930's
