> the Situation:
>
> I am a former San Diegan, now living on the north shore of
> Massachusetts. My wife is still in San Diego dealing with the odds and
> ends of our life there. An upcoming project during my time in SD (long
> deferred) was the gear in question. I'd like to find a home for it so
> it doesn't end up in the dump. This is a 'you-haul, no-charge'
> proposition....
>
> the Gear:
>
> A late 50s/early 60s German console setup, consisting of a multi-band
> receiver, record-changer, and tape deck in what I would consider a nice
> wood cabinet in sort of a early 'Danish modern' style. I would classify
> the condition as 'unusually good', with original instruction manuals,
> schematics, and maybe even a purchase receipt included. Trying to
> recall the brand, pretty sure it's either Grundig or Telefunken.
>
> Those of you who know this gear, will know that they usually have very
> good audio qualities, fairly decent receiver sections, etc. Not
> Premium-RX, but not bad at all.
>
> the Condition:
>
> Quite clean, appears to be a low-mileage unit. As far as I could tell,
> it is 'unmolested' from original. However, the usual bits from gear of
> this era should be expected, including replacement of rubber (drive
> belts, etc.). Tubes, capacitors, etc may need some attention.
>>From my fuzzy recollection of preliminary inspection a few years back,
> receiver, audio, etc. worked ok, tape deck needed belts, cleaning, etc.
> Cabinet was unusually clean with only a few minor dings.
>
> the Deal:
>
> This is a no-charge deal, you haul. Minimal harassment of the missus is
> a must as she is up to her eyebrows in moving madness. For the right
> person this could be a jewel, but if you're not in the area shipping
> would be prohibitive (besides, 'no way' can I give my wife any more
> headaches than she has already with our move; I'm sure that you married
> guys will understand).
>
> Excuse my 'bending' of the Premium-RX group rules; the thought of this
> unit getting carted off to the dump gives me shivers.
>
> Even if you're not the one, would appreciate any assistance in finding a
> good home for this item in the San Diego, CA area.
>
> Further info, etc., please contact me off-list.

> Cheers,
