Hi all,
    I've had these for some time and it doesn't look like I'm going to do
anything with them, so maybe somebody else wants some projects.  These
units are complete with all tubes, knobs, covers, etc, exc. as noted.
They are projects, some attention will be needed.
  1.  TR-3 s/n 10852, clean chassis, SB filter has been removed, but will
include one for replacement which is "fair".  I have no notes on how it
works, I don't think I ever got to it.    Price $65, as is, plus shipping.
  2. TR-3 s/n 10308 , is working, tho' 40m is weak.  Finals put out abt
70w on 80 & 20, the "normal" filter for 80, 15 & 10m SSB is weak, it's OK
on CW there, and the filter for 40m & 20m SSB is good.  Price $75, as is,
plus shipping.
  #1 has better chassis, there's a small mark, abt 1/4" dia near the SB
switch on the panel, almost looks like the panel had a clear coat & it's
had a rub there thru the coating.  I think the pnl paint is OK, may clean
up with a little polish or wax.  Paint on tfront edge of the top cover is
worn.
  #2 has a small spot, abt 1/8" dia., like rust, on front panel.
    covers for both don't look like they have any dents,  should probably
be
painted.

PACKAGE deal, both TR-3's, plus 2 more extra filters, one has been tested
as good, one is not very good.  Plus 6 each, 12JB6's, 3 are fair, 3 are
poor.
Total package price  $125,  plus shipping.
