   EV>My first RX was a Hallicrafters S-38E, it had a switch to turn on a BFO   
   EV>to listen to CW or SSB (if you could call the circuitry in the S-38E a BFO)   
   EV>IIRC it was just a wire routed around some sections in the chassis that

   Interesting, My first SW Reciever was a S-38 also. I picked up mine in   
   1948. I dropped out of that hobby during my 20 years in the Navy but   
   after I retired I aquired a Kenwood R1000 reciever.   
   I also have a Kenwood TS-440 that my father gave me in his declining   
   years.   
   Putting up an antenna is a roundtuit project.
