[Boatanchors] Boatanchor gear at the Shelby hamfest -SC-910E, etc.

[Al Parker]

Hi folks,
	Mine is definitely an SC-910E, Nick's pic is hi-res & the label is 
readable, tho' the price tag isn't.  It's very similar internally to the 
T-827 exciter, and the R-1051 series rcvr.  If anyone wants an up-close 
& personal look, the price is $95, like Pete said, hamfest special to 
avoid shipping, but I do have a wooden shipping crate that fits it. 
btw, it's made by General Dynamics, and the ser. no. is 1.  A real 
collectible ;-)
73,
