Hello, Jim

Remember when even the Sears catalogue had radios in them? I'm not talking
cb radios, I mean Hallicrafters receivers etc. That was in the early 60s as
I recall (probably earlier too - but that was before I got interested in
them).

I went on the air as a Novice with a Hallicrafters S-40B I bought from
Sears in the 1952 timeframe. I passed on the BC-610 though, used an
80M ARC-5.

And did it with just one 10 word sentence.

Fun facts:

- The BC-610/HT-4 family only went up to 18 MHz.
- Versions were made from 1939 to 1955, ending with the BC-610I.
- The companion BC-939 tuner was designed and made by Upper Darby's own
B&W,
which is still in business.
- Complete manual available free-for-the-download from the KG7BZ website
