I've posted some pics on alt.binaries.pictures.radio
This may be a one of a kind individual homebrew effort for 10 thru 75
meters, eight band ssb receiver with about 30 tubes and mechanical
filters.
If anyone knows anything about it, I'd sure like to know. There are some
disconnected wires and a some tubes missing. The guy I bought it from
thought someone in Alaska made it. I had to buy the ssb 6146 Tx to get it
and will post pics of it.
tnx

Hank -

The HBR receiver is a design by Ted Crosby (W6TC - sk) featured in a series
of QST articles from 1957 to 1969 and in The Radio Handbook, 17th Edition.

K5BCQ has entire web sites dedicated to these receivers!

Happy reading !

Ted Crosby is a silent key, but George Badger, W6TC is not.
