FS: Hallicrafters S-15 SX-15 (?) Sky Challenger Receivers, Spare Silver Sky Challenger Dial, Spare Hallicrafters Nameplate


 
Edited

I have two of these.
?

Receiver #1: in poor condition, some missing electrical components and connectors. Enclosure is poor, with a meter hole cut into the front panel, additional non-original front panel holes.? All controls are present and while a few are stiff, none are seized. Both main and bandspread dials function.? Non-original hardware.? Someone has worked on this one before and left a bit of a mess.? This is a parts unit.

?

Receiver #2: in better condition than #1, but still not great.? Appears to be mostly complete (no guarantee on completeness), with some obvious work having been done previously (a replaced transformer, some replaced electrolytic can caps, an added Jones connector on rear, maybe more). Enclosure is complete with no extra holes in front panel. ??Non-original enclosure hardware. All controls are present and while a few are stiff, none are seized. Both main and bandspread dials function. ?This is a parts unit or, while it would take some work, is a possible restoration candidate.

?

If it isn¡¯t clear from the above, neither receiver is operational.? No testing has been done on either receiver or on any of the components. No tubes are included with either receiver.

?

I acquired these as part of a collection of other things I was interested in, and thought I might get to them someday.? I will not get to them anytime soon, and I need to shrink the hoard, so off they go to someone who might, maybe, be able to make most of a good one from the two, otherwise both should useful as parts sources to restore other S/SX-15¡¯s.

?

Receiver #1 asking $30.

Receiver #2 asking $55.

Take both for $75.

?

I also have a pretty good spare Sky Challenger silver dial; someone had lightly marked it on the back with "SX-18?", but it appears to be the same dial with same markings as on the S-/SX-15 receivers.? Finally, I have a spare one of the small Hallicrafters nameplates (with the 4 little screws).? Pardon the photo quality, the dial is actually nicer than it appears due to the crappy lighting I have.? Offers considered on these, or we can negotiate inclusion with the receivers.

?

Cash only, payment upon pickup at my location in York, PA, or at delivery at a local (to me) meet-up, or at delivery at an area hamfest if we are planning to attend anyway (we usually attend many hamfests within an hour or so of York, PA, and others like Berryville, and we're going to the Xenia OH "Dayton" hamfest this year).? I will not ship the receivers.? I will consider shipping the spare dial and nameplate if they are purchased separately, shipping cost to be paid by buyer.

Inquire for more information, additional photos.
