It always amazes me what shows up on the e-place.  Right now, from two
different sellers (I know neither one), one can get the two main components
for the HF Pipsqueak system:

(1) BC-608 timer/contactor.
      http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2228211100
(2) BC-616 relay box that goes between the SCR-274-N modulator and
      transmitter control box, and connects to the BC-608.
      http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3080698567

What's the probability of that?

I once thought that these two items were somewhat rare, especially the
BC-608.  Now it seems like someone has one for sale about once a year, and
final bids are usually pretty low.
