[R-390] caps. n trimmers WANTED (Pete Williams)

[Garry Stoklas]

Pete,

One source I found is Surplus Sales of Nebraska. They have all three of the trimmers you're looking for as "Authentic tab trimmers as made by Tucsonix for Collins Ham equipment", not inexpensive though, $6.95 for 1, $6.35 in lots of 6 and $5.95 in lots of 25. Don't know if they mix values for quantity discount. They can be found at: https://www.surplussales.com/Variables/Ceramic/CerCap7.html

Radio Daze (http://www.radiodaze.com/category/419.aspx) carrys them for $1.50 each, but only has 1.5 - 7 and 3 - 12 in stock at this time.

Hope this helps.
