I can't resist this.  Got my Novice Ticket in March, 1952 and my gear was an HRO-50 and a home-brew 6AG7 tri-tet to a 6146 built into a BC-375 tuning unit.  My Dad bought the HRO for my older brother and me, and thanks to it I became an EE and had a good career, thanks Pop!  My best crystal was a Bliley AX-2 at 3702.3.  I also had a 9 Mc PR that tripled into 11 meters.  I worked Alaska and Hawaii from Kentucky with that.  I still have the HRO, a bit modified and working well.  I even recreated my old transmitter a couple of years ago.  I use the TX and Rx on the Classic Exchange which is coming up on 9/11 and 9/13.  See www.classicexchange.org for more information.
