"Also, there was a Hallicrafters S-38EB receiver, which has a blonde metal
case and gold trim. My best friend owned the receiver with the blonde
metal case, and I believe it is considered rare."

I included the above comment from the linked page, but I don't know how
true the comment is.

Nice Radio Cuhulin. The particular manufacturing dates are included on the

The Lafayette Japanese clone was a superior radio.

Those suckers have a hot chassis. You're lucky it hasn't killed you.

I knew that,the hot chassis thingy.(I wasen't born yesterday,ya know) I
did play around with it a few days and then I unplugged it and it just
sits there on top of my big old antique trunk in my dining room and
gathers dust.But,I will never get rid of it.For only four dollars,I
wasen't about to pass it up.

I also find the local fleamarket interesting, It's
also a year round place with semipermanent vendors
indoors and weekly venors outdoors, weather permitting.
A year ago I went there Early one saturday and on the
left of the main ntrance was a sign "electrical equipmwnt"
so I went ver and it was mostly test gear, some
remote control toys and a corner in the back that had a sign "make an
offer". I guess it was my luck day because I founs a brown box
with a serial number on its side. I carefully opened it and found out
it was a NEW SONY ICF-2010 ! It was brsnd new. I brought it up
to barter with the guy. He opened it up and said "gimmee a hundred".
i didn't feel like argueing so I handed him the money and it
now sits in my shack, works great.
You never know what you'll find at the larger flea markets.
The thrify store in my area don't have much worthwile
in electronics.
