[Boatanchors] Comarison?

[Carl]

There has been a guy selling an overpriced 1625 regen on Ebay for years.

Even an 813 and  304TL has been used.

Don't laugh!  There have been articles on using the 807 as a regenerative 
receiver.  Using one of the 6146 family would work about the same.

I've occasionally done some thinking on the topic of real old-time radio, 
back to the days of TRF's and triodes, when just one tube type was used for 
all receiver functions (no rectifier), the days of the 01A. I've also 
contemplated what more modern tube might be used in a similar pursuit. I 
recall seeing a simple receiver in one of the ARRL books which used only 
6U8.

In an unrelated web search, "6146" turns up in many locations a treatise by 
Glen Zook on the dangers of subbing with the 6146B.

Combining the 2 entities, I propose that in homage to the good old days of 
the 01A and in deference to Glen Zook's excellent tome, that he design, 
build, and test for us a receiver that uses nothing but 6146/6146A. 
Naturally, 6146B cannot be used.
