To All,
I just purchased a Lafayette kt-200 and research on the net says it has a
jack for a Q multiplier. Further research on a Q multiplier shows that is
some how acts like crystal filter, only variable and it appears that it
can
also boost poor signals??? Can someone give me a readers digest, not
overly
technical explanation of "how do it work" ????? and how well does it
work????

In addition any suggestions as to which model, of the many that heathkit
sold, would be, arguably, the best for this application.....

A Heathkit QF-1 Q-Multiplier should serve well, since the KT-200 (HE-10
factory wired version) both are designed for 455 kHz IFs.

Good luck! That was my first ham receiver.
