    Description:
    The Amateur Bands Two is a 1932 kitset receiver designed for ham radio enthusiasts. It requires assembly and does not include a cabinet. This complex version of the Scientific 2 receiver offers good performance on the 20, 40, and 80-meter amateur bands. It can be modified for general coverage with the addition of optional coils (not included).

    Features:

    • Kitset design for hobbyist assembly
    • Frequency coverage: 20, 40, and 80 meters (potentially modifiable)
    • Screen-grid detector with voltage-controlled reaction
    • 1.5-inch plug-in coils for easy band switching
    • Metal chassis with attached metal front plate

    Notes:

    • Requires separate purchase of valves and batteries.
    • It was originally priced at $6 13s 8d (plus valves and batteries).
