Hello all,
I have just acquired a extremely good condition S-38D that someone
removed the original dial pointers and replaced them with ones made
from an aluminum Coke can! The dial cords are original so I have no
earthly idea what they were thinking! I you have a junker set and
would like to part with pointers please email me. This radio is for
my personal collection and not for sale.
Thanks,
Randy.
Google,,, Hallicrafters S 38D Dial Pointers Check the Ebay link.
Back in the 1950s I made a dial pointer from a piece of coathanger
wire, for our Sears Airline AM radio.
Analog wall clock hands
The receiver already has a pointer, made from a Coke can. If he wanted
non-original, he'd keep that. But he wants original, which means
whatever was used there in the first place, not some makeshift like the
bit of Coke can.

I was merely adding to the body of knowledge, not trying to one-up
anybody. How long have you been a lawyer?
