Just thought i'd mention that the first television we had, around 1953 I guess it was, was a Hallicrafters. Around 21 inch B&W. It did have VHF AND UHF tuners. We lived in Columbus Ga and there was

Interesting story. I haven't a clue as to what was our first TV. I know when I was in my early teens or just prior to that ~ 10 years old, we had a Magnavox. Earlier than that, I don't think we

Bill That was the ONLY hallicrafter TV that I every saw! I do see several small screen earlier models on the internet but never did see another one. The UHF tuner did go out after a while and the

"I tried to find a pix of the old tv but havent found that model yet." I don't know if you have it, but Chuck Dachis' book "Radios By Hallicrafters" has many pictures of old hallicrafters TV's,

Thanks Bill but it wouldn't be worth it for me to buy the book. I just tried to find it on the internet so i could post it in your photos section. Thanks for the info though. Jerry / W1NRA W1NRA

Hi Jerry / Bill & others; An interesting TV story Jerry. I grew up in Spokane and left for college (1951) before TV had arrived in Spokane. Seattle had a channel or two but while in college for

I just found a Halli product that is not in Chucks book. The owner states it is a Canada Hallicrafters product. My question, did Chuck include Canada Hallicrafters products in his

Hi guys, working on my sx-117 and encountered a strange problem and want to pass it by the crowd. I was having trouble receiving signals until I realized the BFO control was turned all the way to the

Solved the USB/LSB switching problem in my SX-117. As I guessed, the BFO was out of alignment but not a heck of a lot and I needed to get it back to its center frequency of 50 khz. The manual states

Just performed a complete alignment of the SX-117 and all went well with better performance. Having the proper equipment to perform the alignment is of great help of course. Anyway, before the

I'm new to the group and I'm just wondering what kinds of antennas (length, electrical arrangement) people have used with a Hallicrafters radio such as the S38 type (or similar). Has anyone used a

Hi I use a slinky antenna home made but like the antennas sold on ebay. Its hanging on a hook on my shop door. I do not think I have $5 invested. A pece of wire a push on connector to fit the slinky

Hi all does any one have a spair knob for a SX 110 I just bought a sx on Ebay and it is missing a knob. Tom kd8bjh

For a receiver such as the S-38, almost any long wire, straight or looped will work fine. I would just put up as much wire as possible and go from there. If you are experiencing overloading, then I

Still working on the SX-117 receiver. This is probably known by many old radio restoration experts but I tried this idea with the knobs and it came out quite well and I thought I would pass it
