[78-L] Capitol Compact 33s

[Dan Van Landingham]

I went through many of them including an SX 28 Super Skyrider and SX 43,S-38C,an S 40 but most recently,I was using an SX 42 until the audio output transformer smoked.The SX 28 I still have is noisy
and it has been since the early ninties.The speaker I used on that was a Rheem Califone extension that 
I think was used on a phonograph.It was a big grey box with a single 8 and I used a junk audio output
transformer for sound.I also had,now that I recall,a circa 1956 S-38 and a circa 1963-65 DX series
four band similar to the S-38.I want to say it was a DX-150.I had the SX-28 running in Lometa,Texas 
and I was in the process of replacing many of the old wax coated paper caps when I came back out here
to North Bend,Oregon in '04.I just didn't have the room to bring it aboard but if my nephew comes out 
with his wife and the two great nephews I nor my parents haven't seen,I told him to load it up.He was 
talking about coming out here sometime later this year.I have the BAMA reprints for both the SX-28
and the SX-42.

Which Hallicrafters set? Back c.1957, when I first started out as KN9JOO, I 
had a SX-28; in a
year or two, my parents gave me a SX-101 for my Christmas gift...!
