Hey Mark,

I would be happy to send you three T17s that I have had for many years in the hope that I could someday assemble a working command set station in basically original condition.  I replaced the mic in one with an N1 mic, one seems to have possibly decent audio and one seems to have low audio all based on primitive testing.  I have had to give up on the idea of a working classic station since I am now legally blind.

And me your shipping info and I will box them up, all free.  I only have access to shipping on Mondays so they will not go out until this coming Monday.

73,

Clare. N2RJB

Hello

During my re-enactment event this weekend, I lost AM on the SCR-274N early Sunday afternoon.

I did a quick test on-site and I was getting no PTT from the mic.  The the radio worked fine on CW.

I came home and disassembled the mic and found a cracked part associated with the pushbutton, which I had epoxied some time ago.

When the PTT button is depressed, the relay rotates in the case and the PTT contacts don't quite connect:

Might any of you have the replacement part, or perhaps an empty T-17 case they'd care to sell?
