need model info, make please

Glad you are having fun with it. In those days there were scads of circuits published and radio guys read it all avidly and compared notes. It would appear that the fellow who built this aimed on incorporating just about every method of tuning possible, all of it funneling down that long box to the lonely detector tube at the end! I suspect with two variometers that one of them is the regeneration control. It would be good to take your time and sketch out the schematic of it. I wouldn't change anything though because it's a great example frozen in time of what guys were building then.
