I built a GR-91 too Duane. Yep, it was  horrible, but I guess you get what 
you pay for. HI HI 
I used mine as an  outboard BFO for the floor model Zenith.

OK, one  more.  When I started out as WN2HDS in 1963, I was using a Heath
GR-91  (terrible RX), and a built-from the Handbook 30W 6DQ6B oscillator.
QSO's  were very few and far between.  Worked all summer mowing lawns  to
purchase and build a Knight-Kit R-100A with Q-Multiplier and  S-Meter.  Now
THAT was a receiver (compared to the Heath)....  It  didn't help that I
ordered a 7175 kc   40m crystal - yep, right  on top of Radio Moscow.  Ouch!

73,  Duane
