[Hallicrafters] SX-43 Dial glass

[Charlie T, K3ICH]

If anyone is interested, I also have S-53 & S-53A dial glasses too.  These 
are screened in the pale green color, just like the originals, NOT white 
like some reproductions.  An initial production is in process, but final 
pricing has yet to be determined since there are still some steps we need to 
evaluate for a larger quantity run.
