How much experience do you have in the design of UHF radio receivers?

not much. But Im all for doing the research. Can you expand a bit?

how much communications electronics have you studied? can you describe all the stages of a superheterodyne receiver?

some of the ARRL publications may help such as the vhf/uhf handbook

You'll want to use lots and lots of 6SN7s - they save a lot of space because there's two triodes in one envelope.

i guess that would make it a triode and error project
