A nicely laid out home-made regen radio in a polished cigar box. Wow
does that push all my nostalgia buttons. The only thing missing from
that desktop would be a nixie tube clock! Are you gonna bid?

That is a super nice little Radio,for sure.

Have you ever tuned a regen? I haven't.

I can't even carry a tune.I don't know how to tune up a radio.I am not
too bad (if I do say so myself) at tuneing up my old vehicles though.

Regens aren't difficult to tune. Generally, turn the regen control to about
1/2, find the station you want, then turn the regen control up until it
breaks into oscillation, then back it off just until the oscillation stops.
It's phenomenal how much gain you can get with one. I had an old 4 band
superregen radio that could hear signals my superhets couldn't.
