Stereo ?
I am a electronics tech and I can repair / restore but designing is above my pay grade. However a good friend is a retired engineer that is 94 and still hitting on all 8 cylinders. I just picked up a beam of light Philharmonic with two power supply/ amps and the converter to receive the 88-108 band. I have a McIntosh MR66 that I use for AM dxing. It happens to have the outboard MPX decoder. My friend says that he can make my Philly stereo. Has anyone else done this?See More

"I would like to add that your radio is my dream radio. I'd give up a lot of my collection to have one. "

"That would be amazing to hear...and see! But what frequency will it be transmitting on? How long before the "radio police" show up? Lol!"
Finally done.
I just installed the tweeters in my pointer dial Laurate Grande Philharmonic. To demonstrate the potential of this radio I found a retired RF engineer who is building a 10 watt 25kc bandwidth transmitter and I should have it by July. The cabinet is a work of art. I can sit and stare at it for hours. This should be fun when the transmitter arrives.See More
