Good Evening All:
Just winding down the sale with a few pieces of Collins Gear:
1. Collins 75A1 Receiver. 100% restored by Dennis Brothers. Paint, knobs tuning dial all in showroom new condition. There are cheaper radios out there, true.... Complete with rust, poor modifications, front panel holes and grief. This receiver has none of that and works just fine. Pair it up with a 32V Transmitter and you have a stunning setup!
2. Collins 75A2 Receiver. Has the rare Metal (not bakelite) escutsion. Restored by Butch Schartau. Also perfect paint and knobs and working perfectly. The A2 came after the A1 and has a little different design, PTO, cabinet/dial scheme. A really nice AM receiver.
3. Collins 75A3 Receiver. Has two filters 2.1 and 8 KC. Restored by Dennis Brothers. Perfect Paint and also works perfectly. The younger brother to the A2 in that it affords you mechanical filters.
The market is full of stuff that will require a whole lot of time, money and grief to get working, even if it is all possible in the first place. Collectors know that if you buy junk at a cheap price, at the end of the day it will still be junk! These receivers are ready to go on the air upon your receipt. Get in on the ground floor of good equipment that will enhance your collection today!
Call for pricing and terms. I prefer local pickup or to meet FTF within 100 miles of Chicago. However if shipping is required, I do know how to pack electronics for UPS shipment and haven't lost a radio yet due to damage.
Buyers should email me at wklinn at hotmail.com or better yet, call me at 708-653-2044.
