IN looking at pictures for one of those Radio Shack receivers, it looks
quite a bit like what I remember the layout of my Hallicrafters S-120A
junk receiver looked like. I should open that thing and look. But it
made me wonder if we saw the same generic transistor receiver used by
various companies in different cabinets. If nothing else, both
receivers had the circuitry on one board, and the tuned circuits on
another, which can't be good for good design.


DX-160 was made by the late GRE, of Japan. OEM manufacturer for a
number of companies. So, your supposition is likely correct--You did see
the same radio in different packages.

DX-160 wasn't related to S-120A, however. Actually, DX-160 was a
better radio.
