[ForSale-Swap] FS: 1942 CAA Airport Transmitter

[Tom Laszynski]

For Sale:  1940 era CAA, the forerunner of the FAA, Boatanchor 
transmitter.  According to the nameplate, it is an Ultra High Frequency Air 
Port Transmitter, type TUI.  The frequency range is 126-132 MC.  Air 
Associates, Inc of Los Angles manufactured this TX for the CAA.  The 
contract date is October 27, 1942.  The transmitter weights a "ton"!  It 
consists of four drawers  two RF sections, a modulator (I assume AM but 
could be MCW) and a heavy power supply.  The 4-foot cabinet that these 
drawers slide into is also quite heavy.  I assume that the two RF section 
are redundant.  The final of each is an 829B.  Unsure of the value of this 
transmitter, it is a buyers market!  I need to move it to make room.
