[MRCA] QSL Report

[daverain]

Hello everyone,We went to the meet after many years, since a last visit. Apparently the building I went thru closest to the parking lot was NOT the Howell building with all the radios. I guess after walking the outdoor swap area, we missed it. Anyway, was looking for a couple of items, solid state power supply for bc 611f.A lead or purchase of a solid state vibrator for any of my bc 1335. All of my vibrators are dead, even after alot of effort to restore the contacts.I guess there is next year!Great show73sDave KE2AYOSent from my Galaxy

I brought only two WW2 operational radios ( BC-611 and BC-659 ), and was a little nervous about bringing the project radios ( ATB, ARB, AN/ARCA-1 and ZB-1 ). Thank you everybody for the very kind words on the projects. The ATB in particular needs a lot of love. Great to see everybody. I did see some WW2 stuff for sale, and was able to pick up a USN marked shock mount for my next GF/RU project ( again, museum bound ). Also saw a BC-62O and BC-659 in good cosmetic condition, with the AN-29-C antenna, but in unknown electrical condition, with power supply but no other accessories for $600 each  - good for known working sets without accessories, otherwise maybe $300. They hadn’t sold when I left in the afternoon.  I also saw USAAF radios in various degrees of needing some love. Not much WW2 ground forces radio stuff other than the radios mentioned above. It was also great to see Bill Perry at Gilbert and to find more vendors I’ll be doing business with in the near future. 73Mark D. WW2RDO“In matters of style, float with the current.

Great display of WWII flying radios.  Tuneable VHF is a lot of fun in the air band and it was cool to hear the chatter on your old receiver from just a whip under the metal roof.
