For Sale
This stuff is all from my shack, selling due to lack of space, lack of use or sheer disinterest! All prices plus mailing cost.
Tube socket test adapters, NOS, These are the ones where you plug the tube into the adapter and the adapter into the socket so you can take your test measurements from on top of the chassis. Absolutely indispensible and I love them. But how in the hell I accumulated so many of them I will never know. 
Set of five tube socket test adapters: octal, 9 pin, 7 pin, Novar and Compactron: $45 shipped.

Military WWII T-17 mic. Black plastic made by Shure in 1944. Original and nice, but no connector on the end. Rubber cord is not flaking apart. $19
Heathkit HW-12 80 meter SSB monobander. This is the one with the cream-color plastic knobs, not the later "A" model that has the green knobs. One knob is wrong. Otherwise looks good. Untested and as-is. $55
Realistic DX-150A general coverage RX and matching speaker. Looks great but speaker has a couple paint dings. Original. Untested and as-is. $85
Laffayette (made by Kenwood/Trio I think) HE-80 general coverage RX. Beautiful original cosmetic condition. Untested and as-is. $95
Hallicrafters Skyrider Defiant. This is the original one with just the single tube audio stage. Front panel is good but has some paint dings and paint shows some age. Cabinet top has one light rust spot and scuffs but you won't see that when its's on the shelf. Untested and as-is. $70
Military 1962-vintage Sound Powered Head-Chest Set Type SA-3C. This is like new in the original box. The cosmoline wrapper has been opened. But this is near-mint. $19
Hupco CW40/50 (hey--that is what the label says...) homebrew 40 meter CW transmitter. 50W tube type in unidentifiable military cabinet. Neatly made. Everything is labeled. Xtal-control with FT-243s installed as follows: 7125-7130-7135-7140-7145-7103-7105-7107-7110-7115-7120-7040-7045-7050-7055. Seems to work (powers up and does not smoke). I have done no detailed testing so this is strictly as-is. $85 (which is about the value of the crystals alone)
Allison CD-9 vintage audio speakers (pair), working, grilles cracked but not objectionable. These sound okay but I would replace the crossover caps. Pickup only in Pittsburgh, PA. $200/pair
Van de Graaff generator. This is the famous "physics experiment" machine where you put your had on the metal globe, turn it on and watch your hair stand out. This is a classic original science teacher prop. This one uses a motorized leather belt to generate the static and that belt does not look trustworthy at all. But the motor runs, the 20 inch tall unit looks impressively threatening and I bet the belt is easily replaced. $95 Currently on eBay.
Echophone EC-1A receiver. Worn, old-looking paint but should clean up well. One knob is not original. No back. Otherwise complete and original. $45

Homebrew CW 40 meter TX and RX in one ex-military cabinet (the cabinet is the old early WWII TBY walkie-talkie but it is gutted). The RX is the famous "Neophyte" direct conversion rig as published in QST. TX is QRP--a single-bard based kit of some sort that I have not tracked down. FT-243 Crystaled for 7060-7115-7110-7130-7140-7038-7040-7042-7048-7046-7108-7106-7044-7036. This thing seems well-made. Believe it or not, the RX runs on old Polaroid film-pack batteries! And equally unbelievable, it comes with many good ones--probably a lifetime supply. TX requires external supply not included. RX works. TX untested. With original Neophyte article copy. $85 Also found a small box of 2 unused neophyte boards and parts to build one more RX. That will be included.
Collins 17L2 VHF aircraft radio transmitter. Nice physical shape. No dynamotor. I believe this is fresh out of refurbishment by Allen Aircraft Radio Inc. and it comes in the original Allen Radio shipping carton. $40
Clough-Brengle Model 126 Graphoscope (oscilloscope). Neat 1930's design with that classic CB deco eteched front panel. Nice physical shape but handle is gone. Even though it is unrestored, after almost 90 years, it actually gets a trace!--out of focus and wandering everywhere, but heck--that is amazing! $35
Hickok 203 VTVM with probes. No glass in meter face (meter moves though and seems good). Elsewise in good physical shape. Needs love and restoration. $25
Sylvania Polymeter 302 VTVM. Needs cleaned and restored but pretty unique among VTVMs. Untested and assumed unworking. Comes with all the correct probes except AMPS.  This is a LARGE VTVM. $25
All prices plus shipping. Pickup free in Pittsburgh, PA.
