Folks,
Recently I came into a TCK-7 Navy transmitter with spare parts. The condition was that I had to take the original unused MG with it, with the magnetic controller. The MG and the controller also have spares.
I'd like to donate the MG/controller with their spare parts to any museum ship/restoration group needing these items, or sell it really cheap to an individual who'll use it.
I already have a TCK-7 but with a completely shattered, unrestorable output tank bandswitch. The spare parts I got include the bandswitch parts I need for full restoration (presently my TCK-7 tank circuit is strapped to cover 80 m).
If and when the restoration of my unit is fully successful, I'll have one of the 2 TCK-7's up for sale. I really don't need 2 of them...
