[Lowfer] HP-310A needs a good home

Greetings:

I have a mostly functional HP-310A that needs a good home. It's yours for
the cost of shipping (box + shipping- I have plenty of packing materials)
from Saint Paul, MN 55102. I think shipping would be about $45 or $50. We
can talk about which carrier or how to pay- I can be flexible here.

*This unit is usable, but needs some TLC or could serve well as a parts rig.
It powers up and receives stations (about 3KHz off), but when you switch the
mode switch to some positions, there is no output. This includes one of the
sidebands and the BFO position, I think. The meter, lights and all other
switches appear to function. The unit does make loud audio in the modes that
work (AM works fine) and I have heard many NDBs with the unit with a 50'
piece of wire. The audio fidelity is typical for an SLM. Aesthetically, the
unit is OK (some blemishes), with a long scratch on the face, but it isn't
terribly objectionable, especially given the unit's age.

I'm looking for a home for this unit because I am at least three-deep in LF
receivers! This unit can do someone else more good than me. I'm not looking
to gain anything more than a little more shelf space. I bought it a few
years ago from Fair and it works exactly as it did when they sold it to me.*
