Gang,
I'm looking for solid background info on subject radio for the Radio
Technology Museum Short-wave Display. Hallicrafters introduced this
radion in 1940, and it was advertised throughout WWII. Go here to get
the general picture: http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~postr/bapix/Echo.html
Now, it's my impression that civilian radio production was pretty much
curtailed during this period. I'm trying to figure out what really went
on here. Were these sold on the open market, in the PX, or what?
Also, can someone get me a high-res scan of the the particular Hogarth
ad shown on the referenced website. I have some of the Echophone ads in
vintage Radio News, but I like this one best.
Thanks,
Al
