[ARC5] Hallicrafters S27C ?

[Joe Connor]

That was a strange time for Hallicrafters. A lot of S-36s have S-27 bezels because Hallicrafters apparently used the S-27 bezels until they were all gone.

      Well, this is a new one to me and I thought I knew the Hallicrafters models pretty well.  It appears to be an earlier version of the S-37, which covers about the same range in the same way that the S-36 was a later version of the S-27.  These must be quite rare.

       I think you mean S-37, the S-27 was the predecessor to the S-36.  The S-37 did not have a steering wheel style tuning knob but rather a heavy solid round knob that is stepped.  AFAIK, this knob was not used on any other receiver.  The photo attached appears to be an S-37 with a knob from an S-27, S-36 or SX-28 on it. Look at the illustrations in the handbooks for the S-37.

  cheers, Ben.
