We had a bunch of Halli TVs when I was a kid. My uncle put himself through college fixing TVs in Gram & Gramps basement & he'd refurb & sell sets that folks "abandoned". He was a big Halli fan (ham operator...natch) and felt they were among the best-built TVs. He'd fix us up with 21" table models...my Mom called them "beer joint TVs" since that was the type you'd usually see mounted up in the corner at the bar.
