Greetings to all,

        Does anyone have a 51S-1 parts unit?  I need the 17.5 Mhz crystal. 
Cash or trade.  I still have a good supply of small Collins parts available 
for trade.

        Speaking of 51S-1's,  I just imported two receivers from the 
middle-east.  One is different from any I have seen before.  It has a gold 
anodized chassis, is Cedar Rapids manufactured, serial number MCN 5045, and 
standard 120/240 VAC power supply.  However the power supply is internally 
wired for 240 VAC, with no option to change to 120 VAC in the power plug. 
The power transformer is the same part number as my other 51S-1's.  There is 
no question that the power supply wiring was done at the factory.  I would 
appreciate comments.

        I have seen several S-Lines with gold anodized chassis, but have 
never seen a 51S-1 like this.
