[Hallicrafters] RE: Question About Hallicrafters HT-46/SX-146

[Misic, George J.]

Scott,

I've got both the SX-117 / HT-44 pair and the SX-146 / HT-46 station.  They both work quite well.  The SX-117 is more versatile than the SX-146, and it has all of the filtering built-in.  The SX-146 needs optional plug-in crystal filters for best CW and AM operation.  The HT-46 is nice in that it is self-contained, with an internal power supply.  It is a filter SSB rig; the HT-44 phasing system works fine if it is properly aligned.  They are quite different; the SX-146 / HT-46 is the last transmitter-receiver station of which I am aware.  73.

Yesturday I was asking about the HT-44 and matching SX-117 receiver. Today I'd like to ask about the HT-46 and matching SX-146 reeiver.  I'm thinking they might have been the last tube transmitter/receiver made by Hallicrafters. Is this so?  

They are an interesting looking pair, almost looking more like a Novice station than an SSB station.  

Is anyone on the list currently running or has run that pair?  What do you think of it?  Any FS?  

73, Scott WA9WFA
