Default Re: Chinese 1A2 Super Regenerative FM radio kit

Hi Richard.

It looks to be quite a challenge, super regens aren't the easiest of things to get working at the best of times. From Lawrence's link to the Radio Museum website, the European equivalent is a DK91. I would have thought the later DK96 is a better proposition as it has a lower current heater. I've a number of DK91s and DK96s lurking around in the loft somewhere so at least the valve can be swapped for one known to be serviceable.

I am trying to complete the loop aerial project (Gary Tempest) thread but have had many day to day obstacles to overcome. My trouble is I take on far too many projects when the running of the home has to take precedence. I wish I had more time to spare. It's funny, as you get older the days somehow seem to get shorter.

As I say, I'll order the 1A2 kit and hope that I can get somewhere with it.

Regards
Symon
