Default Swap: Hallicrafters HA-5 VFO

Looking to swap my Hallicrafters HA-5 VFO for something...don't know
what...but of boatanchor vintage. VFO is in excellent physical and
electrical shape. No frequencies "weirdities" although on 80 M it drifts
almost 1 kc in the first 15 minutes and then between 50 and 100 cycles per
half hour after that. I have heard that is pretty standard unless you leave
the VFO on all the time, which I don't after a piece of test gear I used to
do that with nearly burned my house down some years ago.

If you're interested, let me know what you've got to swap. I can send you
pictures via email if you wish.
