[Hallicrafters] Appropriate Matching Transmitter question

[rbethman]

The HT-4 *IS* a BC-610.  One is commercial, pretty near not available, 
since U.S. Government went to Halligan, took his HT-4 - and putting the 
BC-610 line in full wartime production.  Even Halligan and his assets 
were incapable of keeping up with demand.

The BC-610s were made by several companies.  The HT-4 "then" became 
available after wartime.
