[Hallicrafters] Solid state items.

[pete wokoun, sr.]

My references show a 1N1230 to be a 200 volt, 1.6 amp rectifier.  No-where 
near a 5R4.
A 1N2389 is a 1600 volt, 0.6 amp rectifier.  Yes, it would probably work as 
the low voltage rectifier in the HT37 since there's only about 280 volts AC 
there.
Where'd you find the 'cross references'?  Don't know if I would trust it.
Am I reading your question correctly that there are two devices in each 
octal base or did you say that you had two bases with a single diode in 
each?  If there's only one in each octal base, forget them.  You need two 
for full-wave rectification.
