[HBR] Eddystone dial!

[Peter Bertini]

Bill, the Zeus was an AM rig, and used an external modulator and power
supply.
I'd suspect the transmitter itself is fairly light.  You could always ask
for more
photos of the dial, and about its condition.

The Venus was 6 meter SSB, and they command serious money. If it were
a Venus I'd buy for restoration--even in that condition.
