The Hallicrafters devotees, as well as other lovers of vintage rigs, have
spoken. They want the material, so it is available immediately.
I had eight of the original HHRP 2 DVD and 6 CD sets here in reserve for
when someone requests them. So I am pulling out three of the discs and the
other five are ready to ship within 48 hours of the receipt of your request
by mail. After those are gone, and only one is not spoken for right now, I
guess I will have to burn some more! So be it!
The price is $35 plus shipping of $9. Of those who have already spoken for
their set, all agreed to do the shipping via priority flat rate mail at
$8.99 Hence, make the check out for $44.
Please make it out to me, not to HHI!
The banks no longer consider a money order safe, since technology has made
it possible for a child of four with a computer and a mouse to replicate
checks, money orders, cashiers checks, bank drafts and anything else that
amuses their creative little minds! Everything gets a two or three day hold
any more.
Since about half of those who responded wanted the second DVD with the six
short video clips, some by Hallicrafters and some by others, and the
computer enhanced film version of the "Voice Of Victory", just add five
dollars for a copy.
The special Fritz Franke CD, a former Hallicrafters Chief Engineer and
worldwide super marketing wizard, is not included. Nor is the Chuck Dachis
audio CD presentation of his slide show of the twenty most rare or unusual
Hallicrafters products. If you want them, let me know. We will figure out
some inexpensive way to get them included in your package. Not to worry, as
the postage "will NOT" change if we add more discs!
Please write to me direct! I am good on 'qrz.com'
You can read the Contents of each DVD or CD by going to the HHRP web site,
Historic Halligan Radio Project, and taking a squint.
Be advised! I did add some items "after" the Contents appeared on the HHRP
web site! Consider them as a bonus for lovers of things that still go glow
in the dark without needing Radium first!
This is not exclusively for Hallicrafters owners only, as the discs contain
historical information about "radio", classified stuff we never knew before,
how much of what we take for granted came to be - high frequency Coms + RIT
+ crystal filters + B-52 RADAR countermeasures and much more! This is not
about how Hallicrafters came to be, as Dr. Max De Henseler, HB9RS of
Switzerland has already told that story beautifully in "The Hallicrafters
Story" available from the QCWA. This is about getting to know Bill Halligan
the man before he became a legend and his love of Ham Radio. So you Collins
dudes, Heathkit healers, Drake devotees, Swan solder guys etc. can enjoy
this also.
