Good comments Hugh.
We will be moving to a Senior Care community soon, so my plan is this…
1. Put stuff like this on ebay at a ridiculous price in a kind of holding pattern while I pack up more stuff.
2. Then, when more stuff is ready to go, I am going to put them on ebay but also post them here and accept reasonable and sane offers just among us chickens. Sometimes for shipping only.
Just sold 2 SCR-274 dual RX racks with shock mounts including 8 plugs. Got $166 for everything after ebay’s cut. So I gave the guy 2 tuning cables gratis.
Take a look at my other listings. Ebay takes up to 25%
Then while it’s on ebay, if no private offers on this kind of stuff from guys on this list or the milsurplus list, then this goes off to the dump…
TBX 5
SCR-522 complete
BC-1306
RAX-1
BC-733’s
ARC-5 VHF, 2each: racks, plugs, controls
2 complete SCR-609’s with power supplies and full crystal sets, accessories, handsets etc.
Lots more. But I need to pull it all out, photograph, weigh it, etc. As
we know, anything the Army puts handles on they call it portable, but I’m 83.. not so!
So check ebay for now.
Gotta try to get a few $ so I can tell my wife
It wasn’t a total waste!
I need to send a note to the list manager to see if it’s OK to list ebay numbers here.
On Ebay, a BC-224 that once belonged to Henry Engstrom. He left us way too early. Seeing his handwritten
note inside the
radio the cursive style instantly reminded me of mail from him. I could not see what the -suffix
model was, but it is not one
with the no LF band. Good luck on getting $475 for it. I think only one usused in original shipping
box would bring that…
I did see one such, around maybe 1980, at ‘Amateur Radio Supply ‘ in Georgetown, Seattle WA. It was
$125 then, which was
too rich for me, at that time. I probably have enough variants now, including the BC-224-A and the
KW model with the
squelch box on top. I still like the models most with no LF band. The bandspread is slightly better,
not much but slightly,
in the no – LF models.
