[Hallicrafters] Re: SX-71 Bandspread/MainTuning Knobs Question

[Gerry Steffens]

Well guys, live and learn.

Gary is indeed right.  The inside of my gold (brass probably) rings on =
the
SX-71 is silver.  This is just like the volume control ring on the SX-42 =
and
the tuning knobs on the SX-43.

I really thought I caught you Gary.  I guess, I oughtta know better.  =
8^)

Thanks for the info.

Cheers from Minnesota,

Gerry

I have two SX-71's, later models and both have the silver ring in the =
main
tune and bandspread knobs. If your ring is gold, it is only because the
silver plating has worn off.
