I have a beautiful Apache TX-1 that I'm planning on selling.  It is 
absolutely the best condition piece I've seen.  It looks as though it is 
less than 3 mos old.  No rust on the chassis, no gray power or pit marks, 
transformers shine and with no rust spots, no dents dings chips anywhere and 
silkscreen is 100% in place on the front panel.  No extra holes drilled 
anywhere.  I have replaced the electrolytics, the selenium rectifiers 
replaced with silicon, Everything else original or replaced with NOS 
components.  I have added increased C values in the audio chain and simply 
pulled the 6AL5 to get rid of the "scratchy Apache" audio. I also have an 
original manual in very good condition.  The slide rule VFO tube doesn't 
have end splits or pieces missing.

If you are interested, sent me a note direct, I have pixs available. 
Suggest you plan on picking this unit up at my QTH.  It weighs 125 lbs 
before packing.  And I'd hate to learn that the shipping carrier damaged 
this unit.
