Description: Resource covering the restoration of numerous collectable radio receivers including the Hammarlund SP-600.
James A. Moorer's Boatanchors Page One of my hobbies is restoring old radio receivers - preferably ones with lots and lots of vacuum tubes. I particularly like the Hammarlund Super-Pro SP-600 in all its various versions. It is maybe not the best of the receivers of that era, but it has so much personality that I find it irresistable. When I was a kid, I had heard about the famed Super-Pro receiver, but I didn't know anyone who actually had one. In the mid-50's, they cost about $1200, which was well out of the range of the average radio enthusiast. Today, they are often sold by the pound. Even with my fading eyes, I can see all the parts in these receivers. You can actually fix them!
