I have an Atwater Kent model 44 and a Grebe Synchrodyne, both multitube TRFs.

Both work just fine. I get good reception on both using just a 30 foot wire out the window to a tree.
Well, they work fine when the local noise if off.

When using a 37 foot antenna at a height of 1/16 inch and a (power gain only) at the antenna
antenna preamp they work well, local noise or not.

At any time of day or night there are always many stations. Selectivity is quite adequate.

They both need period speakers.
