That is certainly true!, I was assuming he was a younger ham, other wise he
would not have posed the question. I think it may take a special person
struggle with 1930 gear. most at that time made everything or added a BFO
to a short wave rx. 73 bernie

if you could find a good HRO that would be a great real old timer, a
small
tube like the 6ag7 driving a 6L6 makes a great old style 25 watt cw rig.
moving up to great AM gear would be the 75A2 or 3 combined with a 32V2
or 3,
if ssb/cw consider 75A4 and KWS1, I have both fully restored and they are
just as good or better than when I bought them in the mid 50s. The 75A4
beats the hell out of my Ft1000 mark V. they are not for sale, least not
till I SK.. Bernie W8RPW
Not going to argue, but the Collins rigs you mention didn't exist in the
1930s.
