[Boatanchors] Collins 51J-4 ferrite tuning cores

[John Flood]

Yes Ian I was hoping to do the glue thing but when I aimed the torch in there, 
they were gone.  Just the short stub attached to the screw and wire left.  Heard 
a fwe signals on some bands but many deaf.  Looks like it will be a long term 
project or at last resort get parted out.

Thnaks!

John
