I remember now, the year was 1984 or 30 years ago.
I found this unit in a barn in central Pennsylvania where it was loaded on
my pickup truck. Honestly!
Down the PA Turnpike I went with drivers gawking at me as they passed me.
I advertised the unit for sale some years later and George responded to my
ad.
A freelance driver pulled off the highway and with a large dolly hauled the
unit onto the rear of his trailer. Off to California it went. To my
surprise, this evening I did a search on "Hallicrafters HT-4" and discovered
by former HT-4. What a surprise.

George bought my HT-4

There is a picture of the unit in my basement early on in the presentation.
I cannot remember when I sold it to George but it was some time ago.
I wish that I had his email address or phone number.

There are only two HT-4s in the registry.
One belongs to N3IBX, the other belongs to W9OWV.
There aren't any others that have been registered.
