[Hallicrafters] What rcvr to use with a HT-37

[Bob Macklin]

My feeling about my Sx-110 is that it's better for AM than either my SB-301
(with the AM filter) or my HR-10. For CW is very useable but not as good as
either the SB-301 or HR-10. But I bought it for the general coverage rather
then just the ham band operation.

I get the impression the Hallicrafters receivers had better audio sections
than most other general coverage and ham band receivers of that period.
