[Hallicrafters] SX-100 panel - New repro

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hi Bob,

What became of the panels, dials etc. that N0ALO, Lynn Brock was doing? He 
was incredible and his work was second to none. In fact, it was Lynn who did 
the new paint work on my civilian model of the Minerva Tropic Master WW2 
Morale receiver. (There is a photo of it on the HHI web site at: 
http://www.w9wze.net) He discovered the 'real' color, which was not the 
crinkle gray that we had all seen on them.

Lynn is also one of the very few who still do Silk Screen Printing, a 
definite art form that is fast becoming only a memory. Why the U.S. Army and 
Navy used silk screen printing on the MTM is a bit of a puzzle. Hey, maybe 
one of the brass had a sense of artistic persuasion and simply thought the 
tough as a bus station steak steel cabinet looked pretty with "MINERVA 
TROPIC MASTER" scrolled across the drop down front door! Who knows.

Where is my old friend Lynn and what is he doing these days? Perhaps he has 
a web site with some front panels, glass dials etc. listed?
