Not exactly on topic but here goes... 

Free for shipping...Mackay Receiver Type 128AV. Tunes from 15 KHz to 650 KHz. This is a serious regenerative receiver and was used (maybe) in WW2 Liberty Ship radio installations and into the 1950's as the Main communications receiver.

In excellent condition. Not checked for operation. Some electrolytic capacitors have been replaced. Requires 90 Volts DC and 6 Volts AC or DC.

Includes the necessary cabinet plus a schematic and a technical description with voltage measurements and calibration information from The Radio Handbook, 4th Edition , 1950.

Email me for photos.

Please calculate shipping cost to your destination from zip 10708, based on the following:  Dimensions: 25 x 19 x 18. Shipping weight: 50 pounds.

Must be gone by mid-October or it goes to landfill. Don't make me do it again.

73,

Ken
