Note

QST, May 1946, p. 159. Lafayette catalog number 88 (1947, copyright 1946), p. 98. QST, Mar 1947, p. 143. QST, May 1951, p. 117. Except for the audio output and rectifier, the RME-84's eight tubes were lock-in types. It operated from AC mains or batteries. Four bands covered 0.54-44 MHz and its vernier tuning dial was gear-driven. The CM-1 carrier level meter was an accessory for the RME-84, which lacked an S-meter. It connected to terminals on the back of the receiver chassis.
