[JMS] Vintage 6' Rack Transmitter Available - Millen 90800 Exciter

[Don Buska - The Radio Lab Works]

Good day JMS Members,

I received an email from Mike Holland relating to a transmitter he's had 
around for quite some time.  He contacted me since it used a Millen 
90800 transmitter as part of the full assembly. Mike is not a ham, but 
did (does) have intentions of one day becoming one.

The transmitter appears to have once been housed in a large rack cabinet 
as all the pictures provided are merely the individual rack items now.  
Based on the coils I see installed I'd lean toward this originally being 
setup for 160M or 80M.   I have a link to Mike's Google Cloud ZIP file 
that has all the pictures of the transmitter (you might get a warning 
message but no worries all is fine with the file) below.

Besides the 90800 exciter I see the following:

Power Supply
Modulator
Amplifier - looks like a single 813
Antenna Tuner - Balanced
Also a unit that might be a receiver - large National vernier on the 
front panel.  ??

Considering the age of the 90800 I'd have to place this whole 
transmitter in the early 1950's range.  Like so many of these early 
homebrew transmitters it has a great deal of original builder time and 
construction care in it, but in today's market there isn't much value in 
them.  Well below the breakdown surplus market component values no-less.

Here is a link for the pictures:

The one issue might be it's location.  Mike is in Toronto, Canada.  So 
this might be fine for our Canadian members or some of you in the upper 
North-East USA.  Any shipping could be well beyond what the stuff is 
worth.  Unless you might only be interested in the 90800.

If you have any interest in these items feel free to contact mike at
