I have 2 GE Handy portable radios , 4 channel, at least I think that is what they are called,
I think I can come up with some larger Motorola's w handsets also.
Thanks, George W5GRG, AFA6GG

Glen & Robert,

        That old gear isn't easy to find online - hardly a mention on
my first Search.

        The Motorola/military SCR-300/BC-1000 low-vhf rig is neat

Glen, we called the H models "Railroad Units" as that's where they were
used originally in service.  I remember some came with the Bakelite
telephone handsets with a snap-in cradle.  Robert W4RL

You are looking for something like the Motorola H21A- portable series
or D21A- / D31A- mobile series equipment.  Those use miniature tubes
except the higher powered mobile units use a 2E24 instant heating
version of the 2E26.
The "B" versions (i.e. D21BAM) have a solid state receiver and tube
type transmitter.
There were other units, manufactured by various manufacturers, but the
Motorola equipment represented at least 80% of that type of equipment
used during the 1950s. Glen, K9STH

     I'm looking for something mobile/portable for 10m.

Must be all-tube, OK if QRP, FM detector needs to
be a true discriminator - not slope-tuned AM.

OK if close to 10m but needing mods.

Space-charge (12v plate voltage) or low-voltage design
preferred - but OK if it requires usual tube voltages.

50's-era motorcycle or other commercial rig?

Surplus military?

Anything?
