[Hallicrafters] Question

[Craig Roberts]

I would say the S-38 series and similar simple sets are a good bet for 
replica components.  Their chassis are fairly open and roomy, so using 
restuffed caps is practical.  Using original size caps in a more complex 
radio like an SX-42 or SX-28 is NOT an attractive proposition.  We who 
work within the dark, impacted bowels of these sets are very glad that 
modern caps (and resistors) are significantly smaller than the old ones.

Restorers of common, easy to service AC/DC broadcast sets -- members of 
the various antique radio forums -- should be a fertile market for 
restuffed caps.
