[Hallicrafters] Hallicrafters HT-37

[Larry Kirkland]

Todd,
I have to disagree with you regarding the HT-37 and it's CW abilities.  
I have one I use here regularly mostly on CW and it is exceptional.  
Fortunately, it is very stable and I have performed the semi break-in 
VOX CW mod from an old QST.  I like it better than my Valiant on CW 
because of the break-in keying.
