[RFI] Odd broadcast radio reception.

[Bill Mader]

ARRL has always been behind the power curve.  Remember how long it took
them to recognize the lowly transistor and to start including it in
their publications, especially QST and the Handbook?   W0LEV

Perhaps not as long as you remember Dave.  The June 1953 issue of QST had
an article on a  station that consisted of a two-transistor 10 meter AM
transmitter and a two-transistor superregenerative receiver.

That was nearly two years before I got my S-38D for Christmas.  It had only
tubes inside, not even rectifier diodes.  I didn't go solid state until I
built the Hallicrafters S-140K in the early 1960's after suffering with the
S-38D as my Novice RX.
