Hallicrafters R-48 speaker. All original. No holes. Nice looking except for some nicotine which Gojo will take off easily. This is the one with the VOICE/FIDELITY slide switch in the rear upper corner. It should clean up to excellent condition. $59 Military WWII USMC TBX transmitter key.

These were used in RADAR systems like BC-961 to switch off the receiver while the transmitter was sending it’s pulses. I’m not sure how they did this.

Jennings JCS 500 fixed vacuum cap, 3 inches diameter, 5 inches long with mounting flanges. 15,000 volt rating. I assume the “500” in the model number means 500 mmf.

HAL ST-5000 Teletype TU in excellent looking and working condition. $45 National 1-10 receiver parts units. I have 2 of these, both of which have had the PW dial and gearbox removed. One has the chart frame missing. The other has the dial pointer missing. They have clean paint and are clean inside. With original knobs. One has a set of coils in it. The other has none. One has a plug on the end of the cloth power cord, the other doesn’t. One has all the tubes, the other doesn’t. Neither one has the bottom cover. Both have the original National audio transformer. One has a gray chassis and has been MFP’ed--I think it is ex-military. The other has a black chassis and is not MFP’ed. Anyway, these would make a great foundation for a one-tube 2-tube or 3-tube HF regen receiver. You could even use the original National audio transformer. The power supply would probably have to be external--or very small. Your HF dial could cover up the hole for the PW dial. There’s three other controls and one toggle switch that you could probably re-use ion your regenny. $60 for both parts sets. NOS HoldFast Waxed Lacing No. 6-4 cord, Ludlow manufacturing.
