Hi JT, That would be a great project. The parts are quite common at hamfests,
AES (antique electronic supply), or other places on the net. Some folks don't like to smash up old tubes to make coil forms (like Teddy Roosevelt said "they aren't making them anymore"), so keep an eye out for actual plastic or bakelite coil forms. Look under the tables at hamfests! If you are interested I will send you a 365pf variable cap (C1) to get you started, as they tend to be somewhat uncommon. I need to dig about in the attic a bit, but I am sure there is one lurking up there! No charge, just pass the favor forward, someday. Send me your address. Keep us (the group)posted as your project progresses. Rule #1 - Have fun! 73 de Tom/W4OKW (ex K1AST) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Date: Fri, 1 Feb 2008 14:00:53 -0500 From: "JT Croteau" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [AMRadio] Building my first regenerative RX I'd like to try building my first regenerative receiver but I am quite new to tube rigs so I am looking for something relatively simple to construct. I've been looking at the following circuit and wonder if it'd be a good one to start with. http://www.mines.uidaho.edu/~glowbugs/12at7_regen.html Would I have any difficulties finding the tube, tube socket, and tube bases?
