"Richard" wrote in message ... Lots of radios had "Sky" in their name. Lots of Hallicrafters radios had "Sky" in their name: Sky Elite Sky Buddy Skyfone Sky Master Skyrider Diversity Sky Courier Skyrider Super Skyrider Ultra Skyrider Skyrider Commercial Skychief Sky Challenger Sky Champion Skyrider 5-10 Skyrider Marine Sky Traveler Skyrider Jr. Skybuddy II Sky Challenger II Skyrider Defiant These names are from the "Radios by Hallicrafters" book by Chuck Dachis. I own 9 Hallicrafters radios. None of them have the word "Sky" in the name. They sure made alot of radios. I was looking today in a 1959 radio magazine and saw an advert for "Sky Pixie". Aw, cute name. :c) Much better than something like "Transistor 6". About that time, nearly every transistor radio had to have the words "Solid State" somewhere on it's case. Hard to imagine, but at one time tubes weren't cool! Frank Dresser |
