Your variations-on-a- theme idea is correct; notice how similar the SX-42 and SX-62 are on the inside. I had a Hallicrafters SX-101 for many years - the one with the big slide rule dial and the capability of adding a 2-meter converter (we all ran AM in those days on 2m). It weighed quite a bit and kept the room warm in the winter, especially when paired it up with the HT-44B, but worked very well. I like the early SX-101 as it covered 160m. The later variants didn't but one thing they did have was the oscillator tube filaments on at all times when the rig was plugged in. That helped stability quite a bit. I'd still like to have a 101 to pair with the HT-32B. Dave K8MN |
