[ARC5] Hallicrafters S27C ?

[Military Wireless Museum]

Interestingly the 27C was on a shock mount that has the hook over clip down type catches but the set case did not have the matching lugs. But, on my S27/S-36 its case does have the matching lugs. I guess for mounting in an aircraft, vehicle etc ?


Pics now on my web site, USA page.

        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.

No Richard, I mean S-27C.                Single band Ultra high frequency set.
