A short time ago, I received a very good condition, Hallicrafters S-5 sales
brochure.  In this 14 page booklet, is a schematic of the S-5.  I never
really looked at it closely until today when I scanned it at 600dpi.
Brightened it up with a graphics program and took a close look at the title
block, lower right hand corner.  There's the date, a signature and other
information.  There is also and error.

Someone, and probably a lot of other never caught a glaring spelling error.
In the title block of an S-5 receiver built in 1935, it says: "Modle S-5".
A 70 year old spelling error.

I hate myself for being so darn (insert proper word here).
