Yes, and forget not the National remember them? nc-109.
I reckon was one of the better cheaper receivers I had. But, it was really
prone to dial cord failure.
I wound up re doing mine, bypassing all the vissual indicators, and making a
dirrect run to the capacitors so I could get the rx working without having
to face a dial cord restringing, and the charge of $5.00 every time it
needed to be done.
I wish I had one of these, now. It was a nice little receiver for its day.
