Got a small 6 meter AM rig here. (hallicrafters)  Only have a crystal for 50.2 Mhz though.

Anyone care to try to schedule somthing?

I had one of the Hallicrafters once. They use the 25 mHz crystals(double to 6m). I wish I still had it. It was an SR-46. The 2m AM version was an SR-42. I believe that the 6 and 2 version was an SR-34.I have several 6m AM rigs here. Maybe I will get on 6m AM this weekend.

Yea that's it, SR-46.  I only have the one crystal so far.

I'm working a 3 ele yagi up for it. Should be nice.
