Robert,
It's the right group, just hardly anyone here. Not a lot of people who
have National radios have found this group yet.
I started it just before the rules changed for basic groups here.
Otherwise, any new group after that change would incur a fee after
membership reached 100. I created some for the more popular vintage
radio brands and this is one of them.
Whether it grows to become useful in time we will have to wait and
see. The Icom group grew pretty fast, and the antenna tuners group is
growing at an even faster rate. But the vintage groups aren't building
up steam yet.

Well, not sure if this is the right group or not, but we will find out.
Working on restoring an NCX-500 (very similar to the National 200, or NCX-200) transceiver. I am located very close to a 50kw AM broadcast station on 1030 Khz and have noticed that these rigs are subject to front end overload in the receiver. I found it necessary to put a high-pass filter inline with the antenna to eliminate an abundance of birdies and other stuff.
Something to be aware of...
