The CORSAIR-II, with its PTO and AZNAC type receiver design, may be one of the finest, quietest analog receivers ever built, at least by Ten-Tec...

Did the original Corsair employ the "AZNAC" design?
I read that the original Corsair used 4 discrete Schottky diodes in the mixer and that the Corsair II used 4 monolithic Schottky diodes in the mixer.

Also, looking at the Sherwood Receiver Test Data on the web, I see it only lists data for the "Corsair" which would I would assume is the original version (?).

Any insight would be appreciated.  Thanks.
