Hallicrafters S-38D dial pointers wanted...
Hello all,
I have just acquired a extremely good condition S-38D that someone removed the original dial pointers and replaced them with ones made from an aluminum Coke can! The dial cords are original so I have no earthly idea what they were thinking! I you have a junker set and would like to part with pointers please email me. This radio is for my personal collection and not for sale. Thanks, Randy. |

If he wanted non-original, he'd keep that. But he wants original, which means whatever was used there in the first place, not some makeshift like the bit of Coke can. Michael |

He chimes in, as he has to do, and adds nothing to the solution, yet distracts the thread so you think it's about finding any old substitute. Michael |

It was a common looking ordinary radio/dark brown bakelite plastic cabinet table model radio. My mom was a sales clerk at the local Jackson Sears & Roebuck store. Ten percent off the regular store prices. |

You could get every AM station in the world on it. |
