I've been looking for one of those for some time. You see, that radio is a part of the history of my hometown - Manitowoc, WI. Lakeshore Industries (named for the fact that the original factory [which is now a cannery] was close to the shore of Lake Michigan), who made this early phasing rig, was in my hometown. When I belonged to my hometown ham club in the 90s, some of the OTs were former movers and shakers at Lakeshore Industries. My old club has a couple of Phasemaster IIBs they're restoring for a vintage station (one of them was found 2 years ago, abandoned, in the last building Lakeshore industries was located in). I had a brief discussion with the designer of the Phasemaster rigs (Hubert Willis, W9TQV, if I remember right), about them back in 1997 (we were looking at the Phasemaster IIB, the club had on the shelf at the time). Those things are as rare as hens teeth, and my old club won't part with the extra Phasemaster II they have (yes I asked). 73, Ellen - AF9J ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] To unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
