The thought has occurred to me, though I'd use my HW-2036A that's currently sitting on a shelf.

If I could, I'd recreate the vintage station I had a few years ago, until I had to sell everything off due to a job layoff:

Hallicrafters HT-37 Transmitter
Hallicrafters SX-111 Receiver
Hallicrafters HT-41 Linear (noticing a theme here?)
...and the HA-9 TO Keyer, R-46 speaker, and so forth.

However, the odds aren't great. Most HT-37's these days need a transformer rewind or replacement, and as they've become more collectible, the prices have gone sky-high. The linear is very rare, and replacement finals are in the realm of Unobtanium (mine had been modified for 572B's by a previous owner).

So I'll settle on restoring the Swan 3Drifty, er, 350 currently sitting in the garage.
