There is a one-transistor Q mult circuit back in the 1958!!!!! ARRL
handbook I think. I'm not sure how well it worked, and as I remember
it was intended to be a "notch" but wold also make a peak one way or
another. A drawing of the ole Heath QF-1 should give a good idea of
a tube-type circuit, which could be "transposed" to a FET with ease.
If nobody has a a QF-1 book, I have a unit and could perhaps make a
sketch of the circuit from it.
I agree---the little Rx works dern good.
