[TenTec] TenTec 1254 Superhet Receiver

[Carl Winkles]

I have a 1254 that someone else built. They must have done a good job because it works very well. It is a neat radio and worth the price. My objection is to the 2.5 kHz tuning step. That's not a big deal with shortwave broadcasts but if you listen to anything else you have to use the clarifier control.

I was looking for a quality General Coverage receiver which could go  
portable and also use during emergencies (battery power)

The TenTec 1254 came to mind but I was a bit concerned after reading the  
reviews on eham (which I normally take with a grain of salt).

I would appreciate some constructive feedback regarding TT-1254 from those  
who have built/used the radio

Thanks (and Merry Christmas)
