And as it happens, I know somebody who wants to get rid of a
Hammerlund HQ-180A.

Hmmmmm....

I bet you could heat a room with it!

I remember my grandpa used to listen to short wave quite a bit, and he
had an old tube Hallicrafter. I remember that the tube glow made the
wall look like it was on fire. I dont' remember much about it but it
sat on a small table facing a wall, and it had a couple of large knobs
and three or four small knobs on the front and a couple of meters and
a large sign on the back of his chair that said "STAY AWAY!!"

But one thing I thought was odd was his antenna, which was a bare
copper wire strung from their house to the summer kitchen in the back
yard.

I thought that was weird but I understand it now.
