[Hallicrafters] Re SX-28 on eBay

[Joe Bob Brunson]

I have what, until now, was the earliest known SX-28,
serial H116239.  The front panel is the same color as
the unit shown in the auction.  Of course, that one
looks SO much nicer than mine...which suffered years
of being used hard and put away wet.
