This kit is based on Armstrong's
original design, with an tube RF amplifier stage which improves
reception of weak signals, a tube regenerative detector stage,
and a solid state audio amplifier stage with high quality 4 inch
loud-speaker which provides ample listening volume. This type of
receiver was popular in the mid to late 1930's.
Easy assembly - all the components are mounted on a high quality
silk-screened fibre glass printed circuit board.
No coils to wind - that has already been done for you! And
simple to follow instructions with both schematics and wiring
diagrams!
The kit comes complete with a silk screened front panel, a
rear panel and high quality speaker.
The iGen receivers run off 12 volts, so are completely safe
to build and use, no nasty high voltages, it is a great way to
learn a new hobby!
You get a manual, all the parts including valves,
sockets, jack plugs, tuning capacitors, coils, resistors, wire,
nuts and bolts etc.
