6 e ause of i fo like this:
7 In order to understand THIS you must understand THESE:
8 9 s a d ea lie -Separate receiver and transmitter -Emphasis on finding good receiver Basic radio Volume control and tuning knob (VFO) Early receivers AM and CW modes only (look for BFO o CW s it h Either Gen Co g (BC Band->30 Mc) or HamBand
9 National NC-270 Mode ately p i ed ha e ei e f o the s
10 Receivers w Product Detector for selectable Upper/Lower Sideband Innovations: Notch filter; also selectable LSB/USB (you can tell by looking for LSB/USB s it h, athe tha o e that is la eled BFO o si ply says AMCW
