[Hallicrafters] Attention All Who Want Halligan Video Info

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hi All,

All of you who would like the details of what is contained on the two DVD 
and six CD that comprise the contents of the four HHRP releases, please 
contact me direct!

I will send you a copy of the contents for each individual package. Keeping 
in mind, that I am NOT going to name each and every file, as the Halligan 
data disc #1 has 118 individual files on it alone!

The original distribution was done by combining HHRP releases #1 and #2 into 
one package and HHRP releases #3 and #4 into a second package.

You can purchase release #1 with the Halligan video on DVD and a CD with 118 
data files + release #2 with the 2 CD audio set remastered from the original 
cassettes, for a total price of $40 and $4 shipping. Write me for the 
contents in more detail!

You can purchase the second package with release #3 containing a DVD that 
has a professionally restored copy of the Voice Of Victory, and six other 
Hallicrafters video shorts. Plus another Halligan data disk with 140+ files. 
Combined with release #4 that includes a CD featuring former Hallicrafters 
Chief Engineer, and later super world marketing wizard, Fritz Franke. 
Including his mind blowing lecture in Dayton, Ohio in text, as well as on 
the audio CD included in package one! Besides the rare material on Fritz 
Franke - including the 77 page Princeton University report on Hallicrafters, 
there is an audio CD. It includes the twenty slide show presentation given 
in Dayton, Ohio at the 1983 Dayton Hamvention by a young guy named Chuck 
Dachis! His audio presentation runs about 58 minutes and is fabulous!

This second package is priced the same. You get all of both releases #3 and 
#4 for $40 plus $4 for shipping.

Write me for more details as to what is included.

I spent 22 months putting these four releases together. There is a huge 
amount of material involved! Such as the actual high resolution color scans 
of the actual Gatti DXpedition to Mount Kilimanjaro in 1947-1948 and all 20+ 
pages of text and photos on the data CD. The actual audio from the 1959 
Hallicrafters produced 45 rpm record entitled "The Amazing World Of 
Short-Wave". Hear Sputnik! Hear President Dwight D. Eisenhauer in December 
of 1958 addressing the world. Hear the Russians shoot down the commercial 
passenger airliner, as recorded live by some Hams somewhere! Hear live Ham 
QSO segments in Morse and AM from the thirties! Hear a police gun battle 
with criminals live on Chicago radio! This is incredible! If your kids or 
grandchildren asked why you listened to radio in the dark ages of ice boxes 
and Dinosaurs, play this and melt their minds!

Hear Bill Halligan, Max De Henseler and his wife Renate during a one hour 
dinner conversation/interview. I remastered it from the 1981 cassette tape 
guys, but I left in the sounds of silverware clanking, water glasses 
thumping when set down on the table and so forth. Adds authenticity! You can 
even hear what Bill ordered to eat! Facts come out during this off the cuff 
dialogue that you will NEVER hear, let alone read about, anywhere else!

Hear Fritz Franke tell about how the Russians tried to infiltrate 
Hallicrafters! Learn about those ambulances that were really mobile spy 
vehicles carrying a HT-4 and SX-28, among other things! Listen as Fritz 
talks about the high speed small boats that roared by the coasts of Japan 
trying to determine if they really had RADAR or not! Sit stunned as you hear 
the real truth about "when" the United States knew that Hawaii would be 
attacked. (Frankly, I got very upset and angry when I heard how things 
really happened!) It is a story well worth learning about, as it truly is an 
important part of our history that Americans have a right to know. The 
actual way the Japenese were sending information to their navy will blow 
your neurons loose!

When Bill Halligan agreed to film this totally unscripted and impromptu 
video on November 18, 1983 he was twenty days shy of being 85 years old. A 
Japanese Ham, who was also an excellent video cameraman, filmed the 
interview that Dr. Max conducted. It is an absolute MUST see and hear video! 
Your change to actually see and hear Bill Halligan, Sr. tell about parts of 
his own life never before revealed publically, learn things about 
Hallicrafters that not even the rumor mills go wind of and truly get to know 
this humble, ego free and brilliant man, W9WZE.
