Procedures, signals and instructions. $7 Phil Ault, Wires West, Dodd, Mead & Co., 1974, hardback with dust jacket, ex-library, 175 pages. A pretty engaging story, very simply written about the progress of telegraph and later telephone lines across the USA and to Alaska. Some discussion about the trans-oceanic cables. The first half of the book is better than the second half. $9 PARTS AND BA MISCELLANY Tube sockets, all types, about 5 pounds of them, mostly used, some new, lots of wafer-type sockets, 7-pin and 9-pin miniature, with and without tube-shield bases, some 4-pin and 5-pin stuff, some octals, some ceramic but mostly phenolic, probably no 7-pin and definitely no loktal or compactron sockets and no old, surface-mount types. Im guessing there are 150 or more sockets here. $20 plus $8.60 US priority flat rate box mailing. Vector tube socket-based terminal assemblies. I forget what these are called. But they have a cylinder mounted below the tube socket with terminals for making connections like a terminal strip. So you have all the tube socket pin terminals plus the extra terminals on the cylinder for building a circuit below the tube. These are all used but cleaned up to near-new condition. There are 4 octals, 2 7-pin miniatures and 4 Nuvistor. The Nuvistor ones are brand new. $20 shipped to your door. Surface-mount tube sockets. These are designed for 01A-type tubes where the locking pin fits in a slot and twists to lock the tube in position. There are 4 of these in brown plastic and two of those are cracked at the locking pin position. $5 Western Electric 100-A large square metal tube socket with faded tag. Used. $5 Remler Type 50 Tube socket, probably surface mount, though it could go either way. Designed for 4-pin tubes where 2 of the pins are thicker than the other two. $5 RCA Radiotron WD socket RCA part number S-365136. This has 4 pins with one pin larger than the other 3 and lug nut connections. Probably surface mount. $8 Heathkit AA-111 20 watt stereo amplifier. This has one 7199 driving 2 EL-84s in each channel. All tubes are present. Some light surface rust on the power transformer. Probably an easy restoration. No cover and I dont think it ever had one. $99 Heathkit A-7 mono amplifier. This has a 12SN7 driving a pair of 12A6s, which I think are in push-pull. Designed for Hi-Fi. Only 3 controls--bass, treble and volume. Nice gray hammertone chassis. No cover and I dont think it ever had one. $59 Autek QF-1 audio filter. $10 plus $8.60 flat rate box mailing. Heathkit HM-15 SWR/power meter. Nice and original but needs cleaned. $10 plus FRB mailing. Cornell-Dubilier CDB-3 decade capacitor. This is part of that set of test gear they made in the 3x5x5 wooden boxes. Needs cleaned. $16 including FRB mailing Cornell-Dubilier BN capacitance bridge with tuning eye.

Homebrew receiver. This is in a 6 inch wide, 5 inch high and 4 inch deep bud box. It has the small National ACN-type dial with no markings on it, one knob, a headphone jack and a banana jack for attaching an antenna. Inside, it uses a single 6D10 compactron tube. The tuning cap and coil are very small, possibly VHF. Well-made homebrew with short leads and quality wiring practices. Cute little guy. Needs cleaning. $30 including FRB mailing. Thanks for looking. 73, Don Merz, N3RHT ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Partner Website: http://www.amfone.net Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected]
