Actually I was referring to the note on the rack, John. (o: The half-length
box is the transmitter. Converter had covers on back where a dynamotor
would sit, and two sockets on back.

Nope. Just moved them down here this past year and only dug them out in
March. The Raleigh 'fest in April was the first time any of those were
offered.
That area you refer to on the edge of the fairgrounds is historically the
AM Corral and boatanchor central. The milsurplus guys are just around the
corner from us. Just saw on the boatanchors list that the nice CR-88
w/cabinet that Bill/'MPY was selling at the tables next to us found a new
home. I sold a number of items too, as did the friend I set up with. The
gray radios just don't seem to interest folks. Maybe I should've brought
the service manual along.
There must be some useable parts inside. And those cloisonne-looking ARC
emblems are nice.
