    I'd take them if they are near Texas. I would not want to pay much, the effort and transport cost (even in a 4-wheeler cargo van) eat the value, such as it is for a high weight-to-watts set. They are of interest only to collectors, not of much value generally except to them. Or to look at. I will say this, if they are complete, get them to me @cheap-o cost and I will prove one can be put on 10M by doing it. The other I'll give to my army buddy, since he has more than one of the receivers.. Got to have a TX for each RX..

    yes, shame on me!!

    There are still people who love messin' with the old boat anchors and makin' 'em do what they weren't intended. No criticism there........ I helped a buddy remove a Collins broadcast transmitter from an AM station several years back. It took all day to remove each stage (HEAVY!!!) to prepare for bringing the Xmitter out. At first, there was just the two of us. When we began to attempt to move the cabinet and remaining "innards", we couldn't. I asked Jim if this thing weren't bolted to the floor. He assured me it wasn't. So we continued to pry and pull for an hour or two...until it was clear that we were making no headway.

    Help was called in, and once again Jim assured us the thing wasn't bolted down. One of the new arrivals didn't believe him and quietly slipped down into the basement for a look-see. Sho 'nuff, it was bolted down!!!!!! :biggrin_2552: No durn wonder it didn't move! All that time we had been grunting, pushing, shoving, prying for nothing! I coulda "killed" him!!!!!!:biggrin_2559::biggrin_2559: Ya can't even trust your friends! :biggrin_25524:
