Wow, I have not heard of Max (4U1UN) being mentioned in a long time. Used to know him well since he used to attend the Canandaigua AWA meets. I was not aware of his passion for Hallicrafters radios. He indeed had a passion for the Loewe OE333 receiver which uses the Loewe 3NF tube. Max liked to refer to it as the first integrated circuit. At one time he gave me a copy of the manuscript for his book on the OE-333, and it was never published. Wonder if anyone has a copy. I believe I may have the two rarest Hallicrafters radios, the S! and Curtis LeMay’s FPM-200. 73 – Mike

AFAIK, all of the hallicrafters listed below have metal front panels and are housed in metal cases.? The S-10 / SX-10 did have an optional mahogany?case that the metal case slipped into but I doubt that any were actually sold.? If the production numbers are correct, at one time I owned 1.5% of production!? That would be three of them out of some 200 reportedly made. Still have two.

The 5T is an odd one.? It uses all big pin tubes so it is obviously a much earlier design.? It is either the first or fourth superhetrodyne design sold by hallicrafters.
