The first radio that fit all the specs to make it a "Superadio" was this

I have a Realistic TRF-10 from 1965, from before Radio Shack had been
acquired by Tandy and before it was associated with Allied Radio. The
catalog number was 12-614, and it was about the size of a Sony 7600.
As implied by the nomenclature, it has a turned RF stage ahead of the
converter. I remember using it to get daylight BCB reception of a
station about 400 miles away (granted, it ws 500kW and across salt
walter).
