Hi,
From my limited experience I rate the following Hallicrafters in
terms of difficulity of replacing capacitors, line cords, adding fuses,
checking resistor values, alignment and whatever else that was needed
in bringing the following units up to "snuff". One of the hardest
tasks is undoing and correcting work done earlier by others. One is
easy, ten is difficult.
Unit Difficulity
S-41G 2
S-38C 3
S-38E 3
SX-111 5
SX-71 6
HT-37 6
SX-62 8
SX-42 9
SX-42 9
And as an additional data point, I've done 8 to 10 Zenith
Trans-oceanics and rate them at about a 4 in difficulity.
