This has  to be one of the most difficult emails I have written. 
Mechanical TTY has  been one of the things I have always loved.  I was 
very active in  RTTY in the 70s but had to set it aside because of 
other demands in my  life.  I always intended to pick it up again but 
never found  time.  Now I am approaching the age where I need to be 
honest with  myself about what I still have time to do.  It is also 
that time of  life where I need to begin to divest myself of those 
things for which I  realize I will never use.  Also it is a kindness 
for me to deal with  things now rather than force my children to deal 
with it after I am  gone.

I have the following items to dispose of divided into three  groups:

Items I am willing to box up and ship.  Make an offer on  these.

HAL ST-6 with manual
HAL ST-5000 with manual
Sigma Series  4500 relay test set with manual
Digitech Telegraph Signal Analyzer Probably  DT-603
TOWACO TS-2A Telegraph Signal Analyzer
TOWACO TSD-1 Telegraph  Signal Distorter

May have some manuals for the last  three.


Items too heavy for me to box.  If you want  it  shipped you arrange 
for crating.

R-388/51J3 receiver with  manuals.  I purchased this from Collins. 
$350 minimum - firm
R-389  VLF receiver with manuals.  15 kHz to 1500 kHz.  Purchased from  
Collins.  $1100.  The last one I saw change hands on eBay went  for 
$1700 with 6 bidders above $1000
CV-157 SSB adaptor for above or  R-390 with manual. Make offer
AN/FRR-59 ISB Receiver  minimum  $300

Mecanical items.

All the rest is one lot.  Pick up  only. $300  I have manuals for this 
stuff.

I am located in Iowa City, 60 miles west of the Iowa  Illinois border on 
I-80.
