Hi All,

On behalf of the Halligan's Hallicrafters International web site, AKA HHI, 
and our terrific Web Master W5JT, Jim Thayer, please feel free to wander the 
site and enjoy its many many features.

You can use the 'forsale-swap' section to post a "want list" for parts, to 
sell a piece of Hallicrafters gear, to sell a piece of "other" vintage 
vacuum tube gear, to request a TX or RX or whatever that you would like to 
buy, and much more. There is no charge.

You can read about the three HHI Nets, their times, frequencies etc. If I 
get them done quickly enough, even read the latest Net Logs!

Explore the many restoration tips, articles and detailed "how to" items. You 
can also submit them! Not to I, but to: webmaster at w9wze.net

Check out what is new with Frogzilla and find out which way the HHI Pond 
waves are rolling. Some how, and I know not how, the space weather dudes 
tell me that lunar tidal forces affecting the pond that Frogzilla made 
infamous is related to HF propagation. Nevertheless, it is fun reading 
regardless of whether or not the propagation forecasts are right or not!

Wander the waves of short and read the latest logs from Stewart McKenzie, 
WDX6AA in southern California.

Visit the restoration section and glance through the various Hams providing;
used parts, new reproduction parts, rectification replacements, services, 
restoration assistance, original manuals and new reprints, hard to find 
tubes that are nasty gas free, tricks your Elmer never taught you and more.

The HHI web site is self-supported. No corporate sponsors, banner Ads etc. 
We do not charge anyone to use the web site, never have. However, we do pay 
a monthly hosting fee, annual domain registration costs etc. Anyone who 
would like to make a donation to help keep the web site operating can 
contact the Web Master. Any and all donations are appreciated. Thanks!

Please feel free to contribute photos of vintage Hallicrafters equipment, as 
well as other vintage gear, too. There is currently a very large photo 
gallery. Your contributions will be appreciated.

If you have any restoration tips or techniques or detailed step by step 
procedures, please send them in! The HHI web site will gladly share them 
with others, giving you "full credit" for your contribution.

While all contributions are property of the HHI web site, and fall under our 
copyright, you remain the owner! Nothing you submit to the HHI web site will 
be legally blocked from being used by another web site or publication of 
your choice. Our copyright serves 'only' to hopefully afford you a bit more 
protection from theft, abuse and misuse. Such as finding your restoration 
instructions for a SX-28 on a CD being hawked on the Bay Of E!

Because most of you have sinned, that is, own vintage gear not produced by 
Hallicrafters!, we do permit Halli Wanna Be's to use the 'forsale-swap' area 
and to contribute their restoration tricks and techniques for the enjoyment 
of all. Hey! If it glows in the dark, and does not peg the analog needle on 
a WW2 surplus geiger counter Rad meter, it must be a vintage vacuum tube 
rig!

You can find the HHI web site at:

Thanks to "all" of you for your contributions here on this list, for 
supporting the Halli web site over the years and for participating in the 
Hallicrafters Ham Radio Nets. This is "ALL" about vintage radio, 
Hallicrafters in this particular case, and is for the benefit and enjoyment 
of all. So join us and glow on!

Duane Fischer, W8DBF
