[Hallicrafters] Look at this beauty!, cont'd

 Omigosh, a Science-Fair Special.

 I like it in black, but maybe...camoflage coloring, relabel it in German or 
Russian, including the S-meter, and build in a 36" antenna, protruding from 
the top of the case.  Perhaps that was what the hole was for?  You could even go 
so far as to cobble up a document of some kind that would lend credence to 
its authenticity, blur it somewhat, age it in your oven, and VIOLA!, A TRULY 
RARE EXPORT HALLICRAFTERS used by
the secret service of some foreign government...

  On second thought, the hole prolly was for the outboard decoder attachment.
Or maybe the self-destruct button?

  Have fun!
