I have a very old Plectron, like the ones described in this article. The model is R719 and the year on the back is 1975. This receiver is better than any of my scanners. I am interested in getting a second similar receiver.
How rare are these old plectron receivers? How much would one go for if I found it at a hamfest or somewhere else?
Where do I get crystals?
I live only a couple hundred feet from the transmitter of the frequency I want to monitor. Is it possible that the reciever will overload if I attach it to an giant antenna?
Are there any other good receivers that are as sensitive? I don't need the tone alert or anything like that.
Thanks for the assistance.
