[Milsurplus] AN/FRR-24 available in LA area

[Nick England]

Need a project to start off the new year right? How about an 88 tube, 700 lb
receiver?

See contact info below for a complete set of 12 modules for one rack (one
receiver) of the Navy's early 1950's triple diversity HF receiver system,
but evidently no cables or rack - you'd need to fabricate a dozen or so
power/control cables with MS-3106 connectors and 40-50 RG-59 BNC cables if
you want to hook it all up. I have info on the FRR-24 system at
http://www.virhistory.com/ham/frr24.htm

Note - these are actually modules for AN/FRR-37 which is the later dual
diversity version, but there is essentially no diff between FRR-24 and
FRR-37.

Pick-up only in Norwalk, CA - between Anaheim & downtown LA
I don't know about price, but sounds like this guy is motivated to get them
moved. I'd go for it myself if it were closer (and if I didn't already have
4 racks worth of FRR-24!)
cheers,
Nick
