Man, Pat, that brings back memories.  When I had my Novice, I started with 
an old regenerative receiver, as I recall, a Heath GR-91.

I went to a friend's house who had the NC-303.  I really wanted one and just 
prior to Christmas, my folks bought me a re-conditioned NC-300 from Leo's 
Word Radio Labs.  What a neat receiver that was, a real knob-twister's 
delight!

Steve, K8SP
