FOR SALE: I am getting ready to post these to eBay. But if you have any =
interest in them, please let me know in the next day or two.
Drake B-Line. R-4B, T4-XB, MS-4/AC-4, MN-4 with original manuals. The =
MS-4 cabinet has some scratches on the side. But otherwise, this is one =
of the cleanest, nicest Drake B-lines you will ever see. It has been in =
my collection for about 10 years. I bought it from the original owner. =
It is in very good working condition, transmits and receives off of =
either VFO. The final tubes in it are solid. The only known problem =
happened recently and that is that one adjustment on the MN-4 has =
started to bind when the knob is rotated. I have not opened it up to =
find out why. With original manuals. $480 plus shipping for the whole =
rig.
Hallicrafters SX-25 in fair to poor cosmetic condition. It's all there. =
The front panel has good silk screening. But the gray wrinkle paint on =
the front panel looks old and seems to have a very fine sheen of surface =
rust in spots. The top and sides of the cabinet are poor. One side has =
several bad rust spots maybe 2 inches in diameter. The top has several =
large stains but no rust. The louvers are present and have small rust =
spots on them. This radio has all original knobs, dials and meter. The =
dials both work. There are no unoriginal holes in the cabinet. But the =
rear chassis apron has several unoriginal holes for an SO-239 (not =
installed) and other unknown mods that do not seem to have been finished =
beyond drilling the holes. Internally, the chassis has light corrosion =
all over. All parts appear to be original. All tubes are present. The =
line cord has been changed. As-is. Untested. $65
Thanks for looking.
