[Boatanchors] Still need Hallicrafters SX 28A front end sub chassis with coils and tube sockets for HA25499

My SX 28A is POST WAR SX 28 A and the Official War Dept. manual, I have is for the War time manufactured units. My receiver is entirely different from the SX28 and war time SX 28A.

The front end sub chassis in my receiver has a burned out coil and some damaged slugs in the other coils. These are NOT IF transformers because they are in the RF section on a sub chassis.

The technician, K4VZS has the war time SX 28A manual and he has the earlier SX28 on the bench beside my SX 28A and he advises that the front end sub chassis for the Post War SX 28A is needed.

I would like to hear from those who have refurbished SX 28A receivers about your experiences and those of you who have parts or parts units that are Post War manufacture. The serial number of my SX 28A is HA 25499, so I presume an SX28A around that serial number or after might have the same parts that I need.

Your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and 73, John, K5PGW
