I listen to him all the time. That has to be a great gig for a  retired 
DJ...

Used  mine to listen to WABC, 770 kc, Cousin Bruce in NYC playing all the R
'n' R  hits of the early 60's.  Cousin Bruce is now on SiriusXM spinning  
the
oldies on weekday evenings these days for a national  audience!

I built a GR-91 too Duane. Yep, it  was  horrible, but I guess you get what
you pay for. HI HI I used mine  as an  outboard BFO for the floor model
Zenith.

OK, one  more.  When  I started out as WN2HDS in 1963, I was using a Heath
GR-91  (terrible  RX), and a built-from the Handbook 30W 6DQ6B oscillator.
QSO's  were  very few and far between.  Worked all summer mowing lawns   to
purchase and build a Knight-Kit R-100A with Q-Multiplier and   S-Meter.  Now
THAT was a receiver (compared to the Heath)....   It  didn't help that I
ordered a 7175 kc   40m crystal -  yep, right  on top of Radio Moscow.  
Ouch!

73,   Duane
