    Interesting history behind these receivers, germans buying parts from USA during WW2 to build nearly a clone receivers 😳
    I like a lot the construction of these tuning mechanics... Seem to be very robust and precise.
    Thanks for this video.
    Hugs 😊

    Helge, thanks so much for your efforts preserving these important historic artifacts. I’ve been fascinated over the last 18 months with your efforts. So intriguing to wonder what specific role each might have played in the war effort!

    Hello, I have several National HRO receivers, they are my favorite receivers, you have to replace those leaking capacitors/resistors and of course perform RF and IF alignment. On my Website I have a Northern Radio used in Alaska during WWII, of course its a National HRO rebranded. Thanks for sharing!

    Thank you for video Helge. I did not know that Germany had cloned these HROs. The KSTs look like they have nicer to use frequency tables.

    • @LA6NCA
      @LA6NCA  Рік тому

      Yes, I like the German version best.
      The frequency reading is easier.

      Unfortunately, I no longer have it.
      I mostly collect the German radios.
      So I have given these HRO radios away.

    Hi I found some relics from ww2 in the sea and I think one of the things I have found is a part belonging to some German radio equipment, I would really appreciate your help trying to identify this item and you obviously know your stuff when it comes to German radios!!! Any help would be appreciated
    Thanks !

    Very interesting Helge LA6NCA, in particular your hypothesis that the USA have also sold the mobile radio to the "Portuguese", I have also checked my S / N 0815 apparatus and I am convinced of the correctness of Your observation. 73 de Federico IZ1FID

      Thanks for the comment.
      I see you have many nice videos on your channel.
      Interesting that you find the same things in your radio that I found in mine.
      I see that you have serial number No. 815, I have No. 344 and No. 418
      At the Radiomuseum I see No. 871
      Do you think 1,000 were produced?

      @@LA6NCA Helge LA6NCA I was thinking about it yesterday while I was commenting on your video, if the Germans have also bought the cabinets it will be difficult for them to have made more than 1000, maybe we could start a survey on the Facebook group to find out the serial number of the surviving specimens, this would give a more precise idea.
