Greetings! Now that we have retired all the castaways back to Gilligan's
Island; how about the shortwave radio on one of the Andy Griffith shows.
Remember the one with the Gypsies who were listening to shortwave to make
long
term forcasts on the weather? I can't remember if it was a Hallicrafters
or a
Hamerland . I believe it was a Hallicrafters.
It is always fun to look at the radios they had in the office as well. I
seem
to remember old Colins stuff.
Just some more useless food for fodder. Have a great weekend! Jon.

Either an SX-110 or SX-111 Neither was battery operable as the show
portrayed it to be..
The jail transmitter was an Eico 720 ( CW only) that had a mic plugged into
the key jack. Sitting atop the 720 was an Eico CB transceiver. Prior to that
there was a Motorola rig in the jail.
