[Boatanchors] Looking for 2 boatanchor rigs

[qrv at kd4e.com]

I'm looking for two modified boatanchor rigs.

Please share this if you know someone who may be
interested. (I'm not on the Collins list.)

In hopes of avoiding shipping, if possible, I can
work out relays (if I don't attend) from the Orlando
Fest in February. Not sure of others in 2016 yet.)

Or, I'm willing to drive a reasonable distance.

1. A Gonset Communicator IV 3342 or other compact
	all-tube 2 meter AM rig which may be
	converted to FM (or which already has been)
	so that I can leave it in line during storms.
	(I have Polyphasers on everything but still ...)

2. A Multi-Elmac AF-67 converted to DSB w/Power Supply.
	(This modification is beyond both my talent
	and time. A homebrew PS is fine.)

Note: I have info. re. DSB conversion at the driver
stage. (Final modulation tubes & xfmr aren't needed.)

To Trade for both:

COLLINS 73A3 Receiver Serial #50 w/Original Manual dated 1953.

Based on the Collins rating scale found here
http://www.collinsradio.org/information/gradingstandards-thks-gary/
my receiver is at least "Good". No obvious mods or bad scratches.

It has the Collins Mechanical filter F455B-3.

It does not have the NBFM or Crystal Calibrator and is
missing the little Ant Trim knob. It is untested.

I can provide rig pictures - tell me what you want to see.
