Subject: Old Radio Gear - Don't know if anyone would be interested in it.

>One of the "Radio" departments at work (I think, the group that provides
air
>to ground on company frequencies.) was hauling big box of stuff to the
>dumpster. I intercepted it, took it home and picked out what I could
>recognize.
>
>There were a few things in the box that I have no use for, but may be
useful
>to someone. Packaged in sealed cans with older octal socket.
>- Motorola Relay 280k1003 24 VDC
>- I Think a Low Pass Filter Type 5709-27HPx Made by Price Electric Corp
>- Stancor Output Transformer A-8101 Line to Voice Coil
>
>I also got these big heavy, rack mounted Collins radios and something the
>shop foreman called an "exciter." The exciter is Collins RF Unit 242F-501.
>It is obviously missing tubes. It does have this kind of interesting 20"
>long brass box with a slider that's marked in a way that suggests it's used
>to adjust frequency.
>
>There are also two radios, one obviously incomplete, one with no noticeable
>missing parts.
>The Collins data plate on one says 129.55, the other is blank. The radios
>each have some small tubes and two big tubes RCA 75-43, 3B28 D with X-ray
>warnings on the bases.
>
>I'm not interested in messing with this gear. I grabbed the boxes to have
a
>lifetime supply of small piece parts in my hobby shop.
>
>I doubt this is the secret lost Marconi treasure. I am happy to forward
>some of this stuff to an interested party as long as it doesn't wind up
>costing me anything.
>
>Email me if you are interested.

>Regards
