[Hallicrafters] SX-101A

[Lyle Sands]

In addition to my listing of 2 days ago, I offer the following:

My basic description for the most part holds.  A couple of small exceptions - for a better choice of 

words.......

The hinged cover has a 2 x 3 inch light stain - I used a windex type cleaner only to see if that would remove it and that was it – I left it alone.  It looks like some liquid was placed on it and made the mark. It is not a gummy or anything messy  - just a stain.  The hinged cover fastens to main radio as new from Factory.  There is one light scratch on the hinged cover also – very narrow and again could easily filled in with gray color and hardly be seen.

 

The flat black frame that goes around the frequency glass has a few small-light flakes of paint off – such that if we took a black felt tip pen, they would all but disappear.  They are not any kind of gouges into the 

metal.  

 

The Notch Depth knob is the knob/lettering  that is in rough shape as mentioned in my posting. 

Lettering is basically FB as I said earlier - except on the Power Knob-all the letters are not in good condx.  

 

The top of the black border around the front that goes to the back  -  there are a few normal very light scratches in front up on top - the rest is virtually nice condition for its age.



Power Cord is xlnt condx. 

 

Back panel is good - All indentifying words/letters are good plus still has paper Factory ID stickers attached.

 

There is no rust.

 

Tuning Dial Glass face – all excellent

Frequency display – all excellent

Switch contacts are clean

Rubber Feet are very good

 

All controls/switches such as AVC/Xtal Calibrator/ANL and etc, are in working condx

 

Speaker sold separately

The  Speaker is a Hallicrafter R-48 in its original cabinet – there are fine scratches on areas of the cabinet – wiring very solid – still has factory id tag attached. The Black grill in front with all the holes and Hallicrafter name plate is in excellent condition.

 

I wanted to add to my posting - I'm not running the rig down by any means - It is a beauty and the 

sensitivity/selectivity plus Audio is just great !!  I merely wanted to be up front with my representation of it 

and that's hard to do in a single posting - Hi 



All in all it's in very good condx for its age ! Really, if it didn't have some of these small scars, we would wonder where it has been all these years - Hi Hi

 

I'm not a tech by any means - all the functions I ran it through were good !

This radio is for “Pick Up Only”
