[Boatanchors] Eldico Transmitter history

[Carl]

They worked OK as long as there was no TV around and if you didnt mind a 
home garage chassis made from a sheet of galvanized steel with several extra 
holes. The garage was for the chassis, panel and painting. The basement was 
for assembly.

They bring a good price today.
