[Boatanchors] Available Tube VLF Rcvrs

[Tony]

I've only been somewhat following this thread but it did remind me that I 
would like to sell my HP 312B in case anyone is interested in it.  I have 
casually used it over the past few years to listen to the beacons and other 
things.  It covers from 10 kHz to 18 MHz and works very well.  This is not a 
tube receiver but it dates probably back to the mid-70's era.  A nice piece 
of gear.

It is too heavy for me to deal with shipping, so it would be a pick up only 
in the Chattanooga, TN area.  It is in the HP case and I have the manual.

If you are interested and can pick up, please drop me an email, direct to 
w4foa (at) comcast (dot) net.

Thanks and 73
Tony, W4FOA
