[Hallicrafters] Re SX-71 In Hard Plastic Case

[Phil Atchley]

I kinda wonered about this when I first saw the ad.  Even the entry level
S38 series, 5R10, S120 etc had steel cabinets.  The only 'plastic radios'
that I can think of from Hallicrafters were some of the 'consumer grade'
home radios.  I.E. Tabletop kitchen radios and a few portables.  But then,
I'm no Halli expert.
