Mike, 
  then you are in the business of picking them up for resale. Right ?   I know people that do that.

  My interest is getting older equipment and rebuilding it and using it. I still have lots of those things too.
  But will not get to do it.
  I have repaired many R-390A receivers and in many cases I had to go to Ebay to pick up chassis for parts
  To make repairs. At last I have gotten rid of all of them and parts.  

  Some old units I had to spend lots of time and money on them to recover them and put them in operation.
  I have been doing lots of Collins repair and rebuilding for people over the years and let my stuff set.
  Now I am too old to do the ones that I love to keep and use. BUMMER!

  My love is Amateur Radio and using old equipment and keeping it for many years and using it.
  I am using a small bed room for a ham shack with lots of late model I-com equipment that covers 1.8 to 432 megs
  And an antenna system to go with it. It’s a Rohn-45 tower up to 140 feet with lots of beam antennas and low band
  Wire antennas for 160, 80 and 40 meters. 

 The second Ham shack in down  in the basement for the old equipment and the repair shop.
  With the work benches and all of the test equipment.  I had a real good repair operation going on for years.

  As for my DX standing, I have every country worked and have confirmed except for North Korea.
  I have given up on that one.

  I have several new Millen parts, U-joints and right angle drives and other things.
  My interest is for some one to buy my equipment to keep and use it like I had planned to do.

                  Ken  ( K0GEI )

Hello Kenneth.....

Thanks for your message.  I am not that far behind you.  I am 74.

I have been finding new homes for my treasures for years.  It is fun.  Even though most of my transactions are selling once in a wjile I do still pick up an occasional piece for my various collections.

What Millen things do you have for sale?

73,

Michael, W1RC
