Hi all,

Cleaning out the shop. All prices quoted
do not include shipping.

ARB receiver, converted to AC. A little
too far gone to restore, has a vernier
mechanism and knob on front and AC supply
shoehorned in the dyno area. I used it as
a shop radio for a while, till it developed
an intermittent in the gain control line.
Free.

BC-733 (three of them)
One is complete, all tubes, xtals, dyno, and
mating right angle cable connector. The other
two are parts radios, but could probably make
a whole unit.  Free. Remember the 733 is kind
of a heavy radio for its size.

MBF
Found this guy at a swap meet last spring, and
was thinking about making it a project, but really
don't have the space/time. It has been "minimally"
converted to 6 meters, but the front panel is not
hacked up. Apparently the only changes were in the
RF sections. Receiver was not made tunable, but the
crystal sockets may have been changed.
Has the proper mic connector, power connector,
and a WA5CAB manual reproduction. I fired it up,
transmitter makes RF, the receiver makes noise
but the squelch circuit does not work. The previous
owner added a little bracket(easily removed)that holds
the squelch pushbutton in. Did not test modulation.

No cover or any other accesories.
I'd like $50.00 for it, about half covers the
cost of the manual.

Shipping will be from Reno, Nevada.

Thanks.
