Hi , A work Colleague , gave me this diamond for keeps, its a Nems Clarke 1302A special purpose Receiver, tube of course 53 Mhz to 300Mhz its lovely needs some TLC out the outside, going to have to fit a new power socket as I can't get the plug for it , the receive on it is unreal, even with a short piece of wire, I was listening to aircraft landing at Heathrow London, I connected it up to my 80 Metre amateur Radio loop, and been sitting there most of the morning listening to it , must be 40 Years plus old, it's a surveillance receiver , and I can see why, it picks up stuff my amateur radio wide band receiver doesn't hear, this is a fantastic addition to my shack :)
