[Hallicrafters] Best rx controversy

[Carl]

When I built this "addition" (36 x28') I made extra sure the attic would 
hold anything I wanted to put there. Extra joists as well as load bearing 
walls and supports as well as 3/4" jointed plywood flooring. There is not 
much space left to store anything and its all on rack shelves, at least the 
BA's. The supporting continues down 2 more floors and then to the basement.
