[Boatanchors] LM-13 Frequency Meter

[Holzer]

LM-13 freq meter free for shipping from 66212. At the Warrensburg MO
hamfest I saw this and thought it was a really neat looking item and
would make a nice VFO. I am usually good at resisting temptation but
every time I walked by that table it would whimper "buy me", "buy me".
Anyway when I got it home this is what I found: The good news is that
it has the original calibration book and actually works! The bad news
is that someone had removed all the vacuum tubes and associated
resistors and capacitors and had transistorized it but done a poor
job. They had also drilled air holes in the cabinet. I note that all
the critical components of the original meter are still there so I
suppose it would be possible to re-install the tubes, sockets, etc., a
job I am not interested in doing. Another option is that it would make
a good parts source. Pictures at:
