Due to unexpected medical expenses, I have to offer the following for sale, 
all in CCA VG+ to Excellent condition:

Gold Dust Twins station, including KWS-1, S/N 155, 75A-4, S/N 1107 with 3.1 
kc, 800 & 600 cycle filters, 312A-1 speaker with "digital" clock & extra 
lumiline bulb & 302C-1 wattmeter. 4:1 knobs on both radios. Includes 
original manuals with warranty cards still attached. $4,000. Package sale only.

Pick up only in or near the Chicago area. I won't ship these and I'm not 
able to go to Dayton this year. I will, however, meet anyone up to 100 
miles from my QTH. As best as I can tell, none of these radios have been 
modified, although the KWS-1 had repair work done on it in the early 80s. 
The documentation for this work is included. All radios are in working 
condition, although the KWS-1 hasn't been on the air since October, 2003. 
At that time, it put out 700W on 40M CW.

I'll be glad to answer questions via telephone and supply pictures. I can 
be reached at 708-445-0291 weekdays after 6PM CDT and most anytime on weekends.

Thanks for looking.
