    PLEASE KILL the annoying FOREGROUND "music" when you are doing narration. This was otherwise a very interesting video. I still have a "much hated" S-38, and an SX-101, which needs a BFO inductor, as the small shaft was broken by a previous owner. When I went to ET-A school at Treasure Island, I was a member of the K6NCG ham club, look it up, there are 3 websites with photos. We had an HT-37 used for mostly CW and RTTY, but some SSB, and when I arrived an HT "twins" transmitter, HT-44?? I forget. I also have 2 S-19's and an S-20, along with a couple others. None in remarkable condition. Too bad SW radio has come to such a sorry state--very little interesting content, and lots of RF noise. And amateur radio sure ain't what it used to be. I am 75, first licensed about 1965 in high school.

    I have a 30K-1 S/N 16 that I picked up in 1975 for $75 from a small town near Atlanta, GA.. Someone had tried to convert it to a CB linear and made somewhat of a mess of it. I decided to do more with it than keep it around as a museum piece and built power supplies in it to provide HV, bias and screen voltages and a tank circuit with vacuum capacitors and a roller inductor and put it to use as a 4CX1000A amplifier that I have used for over 30 years. A few years back I decided to play with different RF chassis and have since built RF decks for a pair of 4-400A in GG and a 3-1000Z. I have all of this documented on my QRZ page. WA4QGA Recently I was given, for free, a 30S-1 for the joy of repairing another 30S-1 and a Henry 2K. I use all of my equipment as often as I can rotating thru it to keep it all going including a homebrew AM station using the 310B and a James Millen amplifier running push-pull 812A. Modulation is a pair of 4-125A and a BC-610 modulation transformer. This is the equipment I wanted as a 13 year old kid when I got my general license in 1963 and now I can have and enjoy it at the age of 72. 73 WA4QGA

    One of my first tasks when I hired on with the US GOVT was to unbox new KWM2A’s and test each one before having them shipped to various overseas locations. About 25 years later, at an overseas wear house, the KWM2A had long since been removed from service, and I watched as a pile (literally thrown into a pile) of these radios was being ground up into metal strips, in a heavy duty metal grinder. They were not to be reclaimed or sold or anything. I was nearly in tears. Some had never once been used. I did claim a single, mint condition crystal pack…but it’s nothing more than a useless relic nowadays.

      Not cheap compared to WHAT? A friend of mine criticized me for spending a few grand on a camera and lenses, but when I asked him how much his boat was, he started laughing -- "Good point!" My nephew's hobby is riding a motorcycle; IS IT CHEAP? Over $30,000. Another friend of mine loves to travel... do you want me to go on?)) When Benny Hill died, it turned out that he had a crapload of money, but nothing else; no hobby stuff, no great clothes,... Now, THAT'S cheap!))

    Wow, what a wonderful video! I heard some model names I didn't know existed. I have just recently been bitten by the Hallicrafters bug and am looking for an S-40 receiver - I already have a long wire antenna up outside waiting for one to come home to me. So, thanks again for sharing this beautiful collection with us and 73's from K5SFC! P.S. Any suggestions on where to buy a Hallicrafters receiver other than on eBay?

    Wonderful video! I was happy to see the 20V-2 in there. I had 2 of them in the 1990's when no one wanted them. They came from the broadcast station in Park Falls, Wisconsin, and I was later forced to sell them to a retired VOA engineer that drove from western Colorado to northern Wisconsin to pick them up. Wish I still had them.Dave N9HF Ormond Beach, Fla.

    Thanks for this video. My father was a long time engineer at Collins radio, retiring in 1972 when I was five to move to northeast Missouri. During his time there, he was on the development team that designed the communications equipment for the Apollo moon mission. He was also a avid ham buff, designing and building his own transmitters, receivers, and test equipment. During ww2, he worked overseas for the us army signal corps.
