[Hallicrafters] News Flash! New On The HHI Web Site!

[Duane Fischer, W8DBF]

Hi All,

Please take a few minutes to visit the HHI (Halligan's Hallicrafters 
International) web site. There is something brand new there! We can 'almost' 
guarantee that you have NEVER seen one before!

Courtesy of my dear friend, and yours too, HB9RS, Dr. Max De Henseler of 
Switzerland, is a high resolution scan of a quite rare stamp from Spain. It 
was printed this year, but shows a 1941 Hallicrafters SX-28 receiver. I am 
told by those who collect stamps seriously, that this one is both very rare 
and costly! Obtaining one is everything but easy to do!

Take a look and enjoy this bit of radio history!

My thanks to our talented and hard working Web Master, W5JT, Jim Thayer, for 
his efforts to get this rare stamp on the web site for all to see and enjoy.

Coming Soon - and I am not sure how 'SOON' that 'soon' is: Will be about 100 
very special and unique stamps from fifty different countries. Each shows a 
piece of Ham Radio, or military communications, gear. These will be taking 
up permanent residence on the Hallicrafters web site in the forthcoming 
"Worldwide Amateur Radio Stamp Gallery".

Once again, my heartfelt thanks to HB9RS, Dr. Max De Henseler of 
Switzerland, for donating this fantastic Ham Radio stamp collection to the 
Hallicrafters Web Site. You will definitely enjoy looking through these 
colorful, artistic and historical rememberances of vintage Amateur Radio 
pieces of equipment from around this world.

Now, IF any of YOU should happen to have anything that you would like to 
share with Hallicrafters, as well as fans of all other flavors of vintage 
radio gear, please contact the HHI Web Master. W5JT, Jim Thayer at:
webmaster at w9wze.net

If it happens to be vintage, but not Hallicrafters, contact Jim just the 
same. We have a 'sort of' "Halli Wanna Be's" area especially intended for 
such occasions!

Enjoy!
