[Hallicrafters] Hallicrafters SX-15

[Richard Knoppow]

     From what I can tell the S-15 and the SX-15 are the same radio but 
the SX-has a crystal filter in it. Evidently the filter could be added 
aftermarket.
     I am not sure about the screws but Hallicrafters liked to use sheet 
metal screws that had a combination hex and slotted head. AFAIK they are 
still available, try McMaster-Carr or someone like that.
     Labels are probably a lost cause although you can have duplicates 
of metal ones made and paper or cardboard ones can be made on your 
computer printer if you can get a scan of an original (need that for the 
metal label too).
