[Boatanchors] FM broadcast transmitter for auction

[Glenn Little WB4UIV]

I am in SC and talked to a friend that is an old time FM transmitter 
engineer about this.
When I mentioned the name, he called it a fire box.
Evidently they used substandard parts.
He said that no knowledgeable FM engineer would touch these.
Clearly not worth the starting bid for scrap.
