This old transceiver looks pretty good! The cabinet has a few scratches on it as well as an engraving on the top (see photos), but the faceplate looks terrific with the original plastic film still intact. It appears to be all original inside and out. We’ve briefly powered it up for about ten seconds. The tube filaments glow and the meter lamps illuminate. No further testing has been done. The first thing I’d do is change those capacitors, because when they’re this old they could go out at any time. This equipment is part of a very large silent-key estate we recently acquired, all of which has been in a storage unit for approximately 15 years. We have not done any testing beyond what is specifically mentioned above. There are a few reasons for this, but it essentially comes down to the fact that they almost always need some level of service and it’s simply not cost effective to pay our technician to spend time going through them. It may or may not need components replaced (caps, resistors, tubes, etc), controls cleaned/lubricated, alignment, and so on. Unless you are qualified and capable of working on this unit yourself, or are willing to pay a qualified individual to do the work for you, we suggest you revisit the idea of whether this is the right equipment for you. This item will be packaged using our InstaPak foam-in-bag system, ensuring the utmost protection! Bags filled with a chemical mixture expand around your item and harden to form a protective, yet forgiving, foam barrier. IMPORTANT: You will only receive what is photographed. If it is not shown in the photos, it is not included in the sale. This includes items such as original packaging, accessories, manuals, and so on. Speaking of manuals, it is strongly recommended that you thoroughly read it before attempting to operate the equipment. If a manual is not included in this sale, you should download one.

This transceiver is in fair cosmetic condition, but certainly not perfect. The faceplate looks pretty good, but the cabinet has quite a few scuffs/scratches. Also, the main tuning knob has a large chip in it. It’s pretty dusty/dirty inside, and it looks there may be a few modifications (see photos).

This transceiver is in fair cosmetic condition, but certainly far from perfect. The cabinet has it’s share of scuffs/scratches and is relatively dusty from storage.

This transceiver is in good cosmetic condition, but certainly not perfect. The cabinet has it’s share of scuffs and scratches. The faceplate looks good, but could benefit from a detailed cleaning as it’s a little dirty/dusty from storage. Some of the screws that hold the top and bottom covers in place are either missing or not original. Other than that, it looks good! We’ve briefly powered up the radio.

This receiver is in relatively good cosmetic condition, but certainly not perfect. The biggest issue is that the silver lid has been repainted and has some smalls dents in it. Other than that, the cabinet’s paint is original with the expected scuffs and scratches. It still has it’s original rubber feet, however two of them are starting to crack. The faceplate is certainly original and looks good. The knobs has dust in the small grooves as a result of years in storage, but these can be cleaned up with patience and Q-Tips. Inside, it looks complete and all original. I see no modifications. The receiver powers up; the tube filaments glow and meter lamps illuminate, but no further testing has been done. This receiver is large/heavy and will require lots of packaging material. Having said all that, local pick-up is welcomed and encouraged.

This receiver is in fair cosmetic condition. The cabinet has been repainted at some point, and the workmanship isn’t the best. The original paint wasn’t removed, so you can see scratches and such under the new paint. All controls turn smoothly. The chassis is clean. We didn’t not take off the bottom cover due to time constraints, but my guess is that it’s either all original or will have some new capacitors installed. So far, none of the equipment from this estate has been modified or hacked up, so I’m confident this receiver is no different. We’ve powered it up and the tube filaments illuminate, but no further testing has been performed.

This TR-3 is in fair cosmetic condition. The cabinet has some dings and dents (see photos), and the copper chassis has oxidized. The good news is that the faceplate looks good and the dial is in great shape, not discolored from UV exposure. All controls turn smoothly. We’ve powered it up, and while we can see the 0A2 tube light up, I don’t think the others are. No further testing has been performed. This’ll make a good restoration piece or parts unit!

This amp looks really good. The cabinet has been repainted and is a bit off the original “Heathkit green” but still looks terrific. The front panel is in great shape. Inside, everything looks original and unmodified. All controls feel good except for the band switch, which is a little tight but still works. My guess is that this can be remedied with electrical contact cleaner. We’ve briefly powered the amp to ensure it turns on and the tube filaments lit up, which they do. We’ve done no further testing in the amp. Please note that no tubes are included. The tubes shown in the photos are only there to show filaments lighting up. They have since been removed for use in another project.

Drake T-4XC Vintage Tube Ham Radio Transmitter (looks good, powers up) SN 26392

This transmitter is in very good cosmetic condition. The faceplate looks terrific and the cabinet shows little wear. I’m not a Drake guy, but from what I can tell it’s original and unmodified. We powered it up and the tube filaments illuminated. Beyond that, no testing has been done. As you can see in the photos, we are including a copy of the original user manual. This equipment came from the estate of a ham operator and has been tucked away in a storage unit for approximately 15 years. We have not done any testing beyond what is specifically mentioned above. There are a few reasons for this, but it essentially comes down to the fact that they almost always need some level of service and it’s simply not cost effective to pay our technician to spend time going through them. It may or may not need components replaced (caps, resistors, tubes, etc), controls cleaned/lubricated, alignment, and so on. Unless you are qualified and capable of working on this unit yourself, or are willing to pay a qualified individual to do the work for you, we suggest you revisit the idea of whether this is the right equipment for you. This item will be packaged using our InstaPak foam-in-bag system, ensuring the utmost protection! Bags filled with a chemical mixture expand around your item and harden to form a protective, yet forgiving, foam barrier. IMPORTANT : You will only receive what is photographed. If it is not shown in the photos, it is not included in the sale. This includes items such as original packaging, accessories, manuals, and so on. Speaking of manuals, it is strongly recommended that you thoroughly read it before attempting to operate the equipment. If a manual is not included in this sale, you should download one. We’re here to help! We will not declare a lower value on the item’s documentation.
