Hi Nick,

Some friends of ours inherited the equipment shown in the attached photos.
They have asked me to help them estimate the value of this system and
ultimately help it find a good home. It has not been turned on in over 40
years and was owned by a WWII veteran, Lester Kolman, who settled in
Madison, WI and died in 1976. The family apparently has pictures of him
with General Patton, and he helped set up radio communications in Patton's
tanks.

If you know of anyone that may be interested in this equipment, please let
me know and I'll connect them with the family.

Thanks,
Ryan
