Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
I just like being able to find things that could have taken years back in the day. If its too high, its just a lesson I guess! So much cool stuff out there! 73Mark?W0NCL

Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
It seems to me that pricing, in general, has outliers that reflect some strange attitudes, hi hi. ?It never fails that at hamfests there are basket cases that are priced the same as pristine units on

Re: TR4cw/rit production numbers question
Paul, Thanks for the note - I sent you a reply about the Hallicrafters items direct to your email. I am always amazed at how much "brighter" the receive sound is with the TR-4 than the R-4C. Maybe

Re: eBay Pricing
Ten years ago, I rebuilt and partially redesigned R-4B and R-4C receivers, and despite my comment yesterday about the TR-4Cw¡¯s winning auction price, I probably would not let either go for under

Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
I know how much time and effort can be put into a complete rebuild.? I have a Viking ll that I use on AM phone.? It is not refurbished, but I worked on it to get it on the air.? Think I paid $ 50

Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
Have you looked at one of those rebuilt transmitters? They are pretty impressive! Probably not just judging from your reply. Do you know how much labor is these days?? Probably not judging from your

I'm a retired Insurance broker who worked for one of the major broking houses up to 5 years ago.? Agree that at one time all this was possible but since 1992 most insurers have got wise to this

Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
FWIW.....Drake did continue serial numbers through their respective model line upgrades. This is pretty obvious from WB4HFN's serial number research through the R-4, R-4A, R-4B, R-4C line and

T4XC problem
Good evening! I need to pick the brains of the drake GURUs I have recently acquired a R4C (25657) and T4XC (27010). I have purchased proper interconnect cables. I have gone through alignment and
Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
I have not looked at the listing detail but one or two seem just to list something to show off.? Example is a rebuilding in progress of a Johnson Viking ll transmitter for around $ 1000. Ralph ku4pt

Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
Some ebay sellers will raise the price to a ridiculous amount when their item is out of stock. When the item is back in stock they will drop their price back to normal.? This is easier for them than

Re: TR4cw/rit production numbers question
Today I use cheap gaming headsets (around $18 with microphone too). They have a volume control in-line, just turn it down a little and the hum from old radios just disappears. 73, Gary WB6OGD

Re: Drake and station WLO
That's a lot of R7s! I count 9 between the two brochure pictures. I hope they all found good homes. 73 -Jim NU0C "John K5MO" <johnk5mo@...> wrote:

Re: TR4cw/rit production numbers question
Paul, We are close in serial number. My TR-4Cw-RIT is 45336. It came to me pristine but not working. Eventually I found a broken filament line wire in the harness that had several tubes not

Re: Stupid eBay Pricing
Did the transceiver serial numbers start with the TR-3 and then transition to the TR-4? If so what was the S/N of the first TR-3? I believe the S/Ns of the 4-Line started with the R-4/T-4X and
