The HRO 500 was my dream receiver as a young guy but unaffordable for a
teenager. That one had a digital display and was all solid state. Around 1967
or so. The old building that housed the National Radio plant is still there
about a mile from where I live.

I racked my brain on this (I had an HRO) and the only thing I can think of is
that they both have a sort of digital display.

Doug,
Actually, I have no idea of what you are referring to. The HRO
receivers have the large dial which at that time provided good dial
reading vs. frequency readings. That was done with a chart of frequency
vs. dial number, and with Elecraft gear, that is done in firmware with

Well, I have owned both of them (HRO-Jr. 1952-64. K2 2006 - present).
Hi, Doug!
Two questions...
What do you mean by "technical design technique"? Is this referring to
how the rigs were designed? Or is this a technical "feature" common to
all their rigs?
And you are suggesting this technique applies to every model of Elecraft
radios, from the K1 to the KX3?
Ummm ... my K3 has a tuning "precision" of 1 Hz, repeatable. It has
whatever "accuracy" I set when I calibrate it against WWV.
Unfortunately I never had any of the HRO series and only used one a
couple of time on FD 150 years ago, so I don't know the answer to the
question.

For fun- What technical design technique does the National HRO receiver series
have in common with the Elecraft series of receivers that is unique to both of
them? Doug
