Rare opportunity and Great sensitivity for strong stations with a simple wire antenna.
 
 
Key Specifications and Features
  • Bands/Coverage (4 switchable segments via push-button bandswitching):
    • 5.9–6.4 MHz (49m SW broadcast)
    • 6.9–7.4 MHz (40m ham band)
    • 8.5–10.2 MHz (31m SW, 30m ham, WWV at 10 MHz)
    • 11.5–16.5 MHz (20m ham, 19/21m SW)
       
       
  • Design: Simple regenerative (regen) receiver with JFET RF amp (Q1), 2-JFET regenerative detector/oscillator stage, audio preamp, and LM386 (or similar TDA2611A in some refs) audio amp. Includes RF gain control, bandset + smooth bandspread tuning, and provisions for sidetone/muting.
     
     
  • Power: Two 9V batteries (one for RF stages, one for audio; audio can use regulated 9–12V DC). Low current draw (~1.6 mA RF + up to ~70 mA audio).
     
     
  • Outputs: Speaker and stereo headphone jack (mono can damage amp—use stereo or external speaker terminals).
  • Board: Compact ~6" x 2.5" module board with all parts, high-quality PCB, silkscreened front panel. Does not include enclosure, knobs (sometimes), antenna connections, or speaker.
     
  • Performance Notes (from builders/reviews): Good sensitivity for a simple kit (e.g., strong SW broadcast stations with short wire antenna; some ham SSB/CW with care). Regeneration control for selectivity. Educational/beginner-friendly; builds in a few hours. Not comparable to modern superhet receivers but excellent for intro to radio/electronics.
