[Hallicrafters] Hallicrafters Digest, Vol 123, Issue 8

[wa4aw]

The book by Tom Lewis is even better. 73, Jeff  WA4AW Major Armstrong Memorial Radio ClubW2XMN-W2XEA  
If you can get a hold of the PBS video: "Empire of the Air", it details 
Deforest, Sarnoff & Armstrong's life and is very entertaining and 
informative about the early days of radio.

73, Charlie k3ICH
