[Hallicrafters] Look at this beauty!

This is turning out to be a [Hallicrafters] community project!

If we're going to go with the military look, let's have the front panel 
engraved rather than use decals.

Using Photoshop, Word, etc. print a full scale mockup of the desired 
lettering.  Then strip the front panel to bare metal and repaint (a nice black wrinkle 
would be perfect).  Take it to a small engraving shop and they will set up 
their engraving machine to engraved out the black paint, leaving the shiny bare 
metal for lettering.  I actually did this with an HBR-16 and the results are 
wonderful.
