There were many more Hallicrafters models. The 100 and 101 just happened to
be the most popular. The first radio I owned was a Hallicrafters S-85
general coverage receiver. HeathKit was also a really major player at the
time--there were probably more HeathKit receivers and transmitters actually
in daily use that there were some of the commercially-built rigs. There
were also GlobeKing and Gonsett, just to name two that immediately leap to
mind.

The major manufacturers in the early 60's were Hallicrafters, National,
Hammurland, and Collins. As I recall, the SX100 (general coverage) and
SX101A were the Hallicrafters models, the Nc300 and then NC303 were the
National models, the Hammurland HQ160 (general coverage) and HQ170 were the
Hammurland models, and the Collins 75A4 was the Collins model . A couple
of others whose makers I have forgotten were the GPR90 and the RME4300.
