Default Hi-Fi AM Radio.

rar+p and rats:

Okay, here's the answer directly from the Radiotron Designer's
Handbook, fourth edition, pages 1226 and 1227:

"Section 3: The Synchrodyne"
[...]
"and hence the synchrodyne is likely to be most popular for
high-quality local-station reception."

There you have it. Are we done. This is a 3-tube design for
local stations. One RF amp, 2 12au7s. Use an IC or two in the
oscillator loop and its perfect, almost a Costas Loop.

Build it; they will come.

Steve.
