Sadly, a family emergency necessitates the immediate sale of my
wonderful Collins 32V-2 and R-388/URR. These beautiful radios were
restored just a couple of months ago by Howard Mills to his usual
standard of perfection and are in pristine cosmetic and electrical
condition. The front panels are newly powder-coated and screened and the
cabinets (included) are new. These units are flawless in looks and
performance. The receiver includes Howard's product detector and AGC
mods and receives SSB and CW beautifully. The transmitter includes
Howard's speech amp modification for increased audio fidelity.
I can offer the two as a package for $3250.00 plus shipping from Zip
Code 20902. (NOTE: shipping will be expensive -- the transmitter alone
weighs over 120 pounds) If the package is purchased, I will include
beautifully crafted and embroidered covers for the transmitter and
receiver by Stan LaPointe, a Dow-Key T/R relay, a 10-inch speaker in a
BUD cabinet, a Collins 51J-4 mechanical filter conversion kit for the
receiver WITH filters (not installed), and a nearly flawless Astatic
D-104 microphone, thus making it a "plug 'n' play" station.
While I prefer to sell the units as a package, I will split them, if
necessary.
R-388/URR: $1300.00 (including speaker)
32V-2 transmitter: $1900.00 (including Dow-Key)
51J-4 mechanical filter conversion kit with filters: $450.00.
Payment by Pal Pal is preferred, please.
Thank you very and VY 73,
