[Hallicrafters] Mystery S-76

[N4ch at aol.com]

Hallicrafters sort-of did this same type of thing for other  radios besides 
the S-76.   I've seen ads for the S-118 (basically an  overgrown S-120 with 
an additional IF stage), where the item pictured was in a  cabinet that 
more closely resembled the styling of the SX-110 or  S-108..........rounded 
corner cabinet, different style knobs, etc.    Also have an early ad for the 
FPM-200, where the radio pictured has some  significant changes from the 
actual hardware produced.    BTW..........I have 2 different S-76 receivers that 
have a significant  difference between them........apparently during 
production, 15 meters was added  to the bandspread scale, as this was a new band 
back then.
