[Boatanchors] Want to Buy 3-gang Tuning Capacitor

I doubt if I have it because I don't have any 3 section jobs but it
isn't clear to me if 450 pF is the total for all three sections or the
total for each section.  Also, you should give a voltage rating.
"Boatanchor project" doesn't tell me if it's a transmitter or
receiver.   I'd also provide acceptable shaft size and dimensions so
you don't get something that won't fit.

Older large 1930s style preferred (Meissner No. 21-5142B would be perfect) but any other with 450 pF maximum capacitance and proper rotation may work. Hope someone has one in their junk box that they can part with for a reasonable price.  Mike, W6MAB
