| Twisting a bunch of knobs at 3:00 in the morning can be a lot of fun, especially if you have a long line of tubes glowing back at you. Peaking the IF’s are done by ear, but tuning is broad down there around 100 KC’s so it ain’t no big deal. Most of the work is getting the stations logged, and once that’s done, the old supers are easier to tune than a 3 dialer. By the way, one of these things will pull in a station right down to the noise of the atmosphere. It may not sound worth a poot, but you can hear it. This is about the only kind of radios that I mess with anymore.
