[Milsurplus] Military Radios - LA County Estate - auction or scrap?

[bill.riches at verizon.net]

Hi  Ken,

I hadA T-350 about 15 years ago that I picked up at a sale in Millville, NJ.
Restored unit and used it for a few years.  Cool rig.  Wrote up an article
on it with pics for ER but it was never published.  Sold it to a ham in
Texas who I believe is still using it.  Shipping was interesting.  Called
Allied Van Lines - they wrapped it up with pads as they would a
refrigerator, rolled it on the truck and a week later arrived in Texas with
out a scratch.  I think the shipping cost was around $ 200.  Not bad for 600
pounds.  

73,

Bill, WA2DVU
Cape May, NJ

Nick:

That gray transmitter to the immediate left of the first photo is a TechRad
T-350XM transmitter which I or anyone with two brain cells to rub together
would give their eyeteeth to own!!!

I had one once and am still absolutely sick about giving it back to the
Montana State AFMARS director when I left Missoula.

If anyone needs details on that transmitter, I can fill you in.
