Does anyone remember the Allied Knight Kit "DXer" The first one in the
late '50's was a 3 tube regen unit. Later, about '62 came a three
transistor regen kit with the same name, "DXer", that ran on 4 AA cells.
I can find NO referance to this radio on the internet but i did have one
in '62. Anyone remember this?

I have only a fleeting memory of a kit about half the price of the Star
Roamer (SR was $39.95) that didn't last long in the catalog.

Please go back to Communist Viet Nam where you're appreciated.

A Space Spanner maybe? I had a Knight Space Spanner, a three tube regen
with a speaker and bandspread tuning next to the main tuning. I could pick
up Japan and Radio Moscow!
