I has a receiver!

[W3WN]

good choice on HT-37/SX-111 combo.....when I upgraded to General class in 1957, my Dad bought
us that exact combo....we worked the World with that set up.....

I acquired a very nice HT-37 that already had the QSK mods done when I got relicensed in 2005...
and then found a nice original SX-110 on flea-pay for $100 to go with it...decided on the SX-110
for the general coverage Rx as I like to do some SWL'ng as well as hamming it up on HF....

I still fire it up every Thursday evening for the New Mexico Boatanchor Net & will be using them
again for the upcoming Classic Exchange...

At one time, I had an HT-37 with an SX-101A. When I acquired that combo, I already had an SB-301, so I foolishly gave up the 101.

Later on, I had glommed on to an SX-111, also a near-mint S-108. The 108 spent many a summer tuned to 1020 kHz, it had better audio than any other AM BC receiver in the house. (Big surprise). Sadly, those rigs (along with the 6 & 2 meter transverters, an HT-41 linear, a TO Keyer, an R-48 speaker... I just about had it the whole shebang) got sold when I got laid off and had to worry about making the mortgage payments.

Now, everything is "collectible" and the "collectors" have driven up prices. But, I still have hopes.
