I have recently acquired a New-Clarke AM Field Intensity Meter. I have been

Googled my fingers off! What I see is that the meter is similar to the 120-E
except that this one is all transistorized. It appears to work although it
would need calibration. If nothing else, it makes a really cool looking
radio! Anyone know of a source for documentation?


Have you tried contacting Nems-Clarke? As far as I know they are still
around and still making broadcast receivers.

You could also try Orrtronics, formerly Harris-Allied Broadcast Supply's
used equipment division.

Used to be every AM station in the country had one of these things for
the periodic RF proof of performance measurements.
