Title: WW2 German TRF Torn EB Receiver Post by: KA3EKH on May 05, 2022, 09:21:12 AM just put up a video of a WW2 Torn E.b. TRF receiver, not only is it TRF its also a regenerative too. For some reason the Nazis kept building regens throughout the war. This is the second one of thees I have done and never fails to amaze how much more work using the regen and gain controls add to its use.

Or, perhaps 'short wave', or battery power? Title: Re: WW2 German TRF Torn EB Receiver Post by: WB6NVH on May 30, 2022, 05:17:33 AM Torn = Tornister = Portable
E= Empfanger = Receiver B= Model B, in this case "Berta." Model A was "Anton" Where found, KW = Kurtzwellen - Short Wave Title: Re: WW2 German TRF Torn EB Receiver Post by: Tom WA3KLR on May 30, 2022, 11:02:11 AM Thanks Geoff. Danke.
