I'll be bringing the boat anchors listed below to the Belton (TX) hamfest 
this Saturday.  I will arrive around 8:00 in a white Dodge Magnum.  I plan 
on leaving around 10:30.  Please come by.  You can meet the reason I'm 
selling this stuff.  Contact me by email or phone if you want to lock of 
any of these things in ahead of time.
 
Millen 90800 6L6/807 transmitter - the cabinet is rusty, missing its meter 
and plug-in coils, has a broken plate tuning cap (easily found and 
replaced), the front panel is quite good (a little paint touch up will 
make it look almost new). 

Harris/Gates 8 channel Broadcast Console, has factory manual and is in 
good condition, it should work as it came from a working station, it needs 
the purposeful external AC power transformer which is about 55V at maybe a 
couple Amps (will throw in a couple transformers you can put in series for 
this).

Harvey-Wells TBS-50D transmitter #1 - with the rare Harvey-Wells VFO and 
also a factory power supply, this one has been cosmetically restored, I 
think it works.

Harvey-Wells TBS-50D transmitter #2 - it has been electrically restored 
and works into dummy load, could use paint touch up on front panel rust 
spots, no VFO, no power supply. 

Hallicrafters HA-6 and HA-2 transverters with their original power supply, 
they look very good but their condition is unknown.

Motorola R-390A receiver - it works, has the wrong 16KC filter, it needs 
to have its dial lock mechanism re-installed and it's missing the dial 
lock knob (easily found).

Collins 32V-2 transmitter - missing audio gain knob, gain pot is stuck, 
has broken dial glass (easily replaced), the front panel is good but the 
cabinet needs to be lightly resprayed, unchecked.

Gonset Communicator 2 meter transceiver - looks like Hell, condition 
unknown.

AM Plate Modulator - rack mount, runs a pair of 811A's and a pair of 866's 
and should be good for 150-200 Watts of audio, tubes are missing, don't 
remember manufacturer or if it has a speech amp.

Thanks and very 73,
