I finally have my Hallicraters SX-28 ( circa 1944 ) up and running. It
took me quite a while to find a PM-43 speaker for it. It receives very
well on a short ( 25 foot ) long wire. Can't wait to get a better
antenna hooked up. It pulls in many stations I would have thought
impossible for an old tube warhorse. It;s actually fun to hunt and
tune in stations using the two tuning dials. The sound is great
comming from the 8 inch jensen speaker. If you have not tried these
old tube shortwave radios from the 30's and 40's, you don't know what
you are missing. You also get to teep a bit of radio history in the
house as well. The SX-28 weighs about 70 pounds. I will post some
radio logs after I get a better antenna.
Glad it is working for you.
