[Milsurplus] 500 Kc XMTR

[COURYHOUSE at aol.com]

I have the Mckay  500 khz  Shipboard   backup secondary  crystal set!   
weird   panel mounted thing....  in  eons  before this  thing I guess you used 
a  IP-500 and a   triple detector or?    -    Ed#   _www.smecc.org_

Remember  that (probably) RMCA secondary 500 kHz transmitter that used 
something like 4  triodes in parallel
in self excited oscillator? This was also in one Fair  catalog one year. I 
sure wondered where on earth they had 
found some of  those. I had two close brushes with acquiring one of those 
things. Once when I  was rooting through
a shed attic in Seattle, which attice was piled about  the knee high in 
every kind of stuff, some very good stuff,
but all  interesting, up to your knees. I put off dragging out that 
transmitter, and  then with health problems of the 
host owner, the invitations kind of faded  away. Then there was one on Ebay 
and I communicated with the owner,
but  didn't move on it. I do have the matching receiver, it's something 
like  AR-8501, which was also described in
an AWA OTB article, so I probably  should have acquired this transmitter. I 
never imagined that the LF band  
would be opened. The world moves on, and I'm continually  surprised.
