Abstract
This thesis details the analysis, restoration, and evaluation of a 1960s era vacuum tube AM-FM reflex receiver. External influences such as tax laws necessitated clever designs to minimize the use of expensive vacuum tubes in radios. The thesis work yielded a thorough description of the circuits, the successful restoration of the radio to nominal operation, and concluded with a brief evaluation of the radio's operating characteristics.
