[ARC5] BC-375 Tuning Units

[cfb at themuseums.org]

Nels,

In addition to trying to sell these, your friend can also get tax deductions
for donations to the Museum. One of these would make an excellent addition
to the Museum! As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, the Museum issues
proper tax deduction letters for all donations. Tell your friend that he can
deduct the highest prices for donations that can be found anywhere during
the tax year, such as high prices found on evil bay or elsewhere. And also
tell your friend that he can include all the costs of packaging and
shipping, and will probably be surprised to learn that he can also include
the costs of storage, along with any testing, repairs, restoration, etc.

Attached is our tax deduction letter template, and also attached is the
Inaugural issue of Filling the Vacuum. For those of you in the Forum, the
Forum system does not seem to allow attachments, or perhaps it is a size
limitation. In any event, please email me and I will be happy to send you
the files.

Please let me know if you or your friend have any questions.

All the Best,

Charles

I know my question isn't exactly about ARC5's but it's about WWII era
military aircraft radios and I think this group is pretty knowledgeable in
that area.

 

I'm helping an elderly friend clean out his basement so he can downsize his
house. We just found a set of BC-375 transmitter tuning units. I know that
normally these are not particularly rare or valuable, but these five units
are still sealed in their original General Electric boxes. I know that in
some cases with antiques being in this condition makes a big difference on
the value.

 

I cannot find any comparable sales, so I need some opinions for people who
are knowledgeable with this sort of radio what these are worth. I don't want
to shortchange my friend by selling them too cheaply but I know it's a
limited market too. So any help would be appreciated.

 

I do have a local buyer interested, but if you are interested in buying them
do let me know in case that falls through. Thanks!
