You can find a Hallicrafters S-38 for $50 at a hamfest still, and they are
fun and easy to rebuild. You would go absolutely insane trying to use it
on 40M CW, but it's a good pick for shortwave listening.

Hey, just a minute, Scott! My old S-38 and I had a grand old time on
40M CW.
Crystal controlled 6L6 "tritet" and two crystals could work the world. Of
course one had to be able to copy the third or fourth one down in the pile.

Precisely!
