Hallicrafters S-120

Eric-T   Fun set to play with 4 tubes plus a diode rect. Bascially the same thing as a S-38E but no 35W4 tube. I used a IN4007 during the rebuild this was in 1985-86. Had a friend in Germany who was sent to the Middle East during Desert Shield. Packed it up and sent it to his APO he has the radio to this day. The set will be a little weak on the top half of Band 4. Will try and attached some info. David
