Hey Guys: I've got a Hammarlund HQ-160 laid in for heating the house this winter. It may need a tune-up, but the caps are changed out and the tubes are good. It was from the estate of a local silent key who took really good care of it, and Jim Kenny steered me into the best deal I've gotten in a radio in long time. I've also got a couple to-be-fixed RCA All-American Fives, the model which was the first radio I used for DXing - a stroll down memory lane.
