The following came off a R-390A/URR 1955 Collins Contract that had been
sitting for some time in. ALL are Collins Modules.
The tubes that are on the modules have been tested, the modules have not
been. Many of the tube shields are pitted and dulled. This isn't Collins
Collector grade stuff.
These are all boxed up and ready to ship, prices "INCLUDE" shipping and
insurance. U.S. Sales only. Checks are fine, postal money orders even
better. PayPal ok, account: leslocklear at cableone.net
Quantity
Price
1 Power Supply Transformer with 2 tested 26Z5W's and shiny tube shields.
$65.00
15 Knobs, medium and small knobs with bristol screws the only ones missing
are the KC and MC knobs. These will need cleaning, sanding and painting.
$45.00
1 Calibrator Crystal
$10.00
1 Set Rack Handles R.H. & L.H. with attaching spacer, washer and nuts.
$15.00
I have more items that have to be boxed up, IF deck, AF deck, IF racks
w/cores, RF racks w/cores, complete sets of IF coils and RF coils, Veedor
Root Counter and an antenna relay. I will list them when boxed up along with
prices.
The remainder of the mainframe, Silk Screened Front Panel (nasty), Pots,
Switches, RF Module, Wiring Harness, PTO and Meters have been spoken for.
This is the last of the R-390A/URR stuff I will probably ever have
available. I won't split anything such as knobs, remove tubes from modules
for a discount, etc. All for sale as is. I don't want to mess with this
stuff anymore, I want to listen and not have to work on radios again. I have
my collection and R-390's or R-390A's aren't in my crystal ball. I have
found over the years that you can repair the R-390/A receivers to perform
exceptionally, but they will always break down somehow. A Hammarlund SP-600
once re-capped, aligned and repaired
will outlast the owner.
