Hallicrafters
My “good” shortwave receiver for years when I was a kid was a Hallicrafters S-120. I gave that away many many years ago. Most Hallicrafters receivers are really attractive. And I’ve always wanted an S-38 (among others. Still need an SX-71 if you’ve got one!)
So I just found this S-38C, restored, recapped, aligned, weak tubes replaced, in good working shape, at a bargain price. This one is from around 1952. I do NOT need another shortwave receiver … but I couldn’t resist. And tube radios are special.
