Subject: [drakelist] TR-4 Status Update


Good evening,

Thanks again to all who have offered advice and parts regarding the repair of
this TR-4 that is missing both SSB filters and the mounting bracket. They were
removed by a previous owner to repair a working TR-4. With the exception of
those missing items, and an incorrect knob on the filter switch, it appears to
be complete, unmodifed, and unmolested. The rig is in physically good condition
including the copper chassis which is bright and shiny with only a couple small
blemishes and no corrosion.

Unfortunately, I have discovered that the cost of obtaining the missing two
filters and bracket (that I have not yet located) may cost as much as the rig
is worth if not more. Even after replacing those parts I will still have to
troubleshoot the original unknown problem and, of course, replace any defective
components and/or tubes.

Based on the above I will either part out the pieces or sell the entire rig as
is unless I can obtain the filters and bracket at a very good price. I'll wait
until early next to see what responses may trickle in over the weekend before
posting my decision.

If you have the filters and/or bracket please let me know what you have and what
you want for it/them. If you want pieces or the entire rig send me a note
detailing what you want. It may help me decide which way to go! To be fair, if
I decide to sell either parts or the entire rig I will respond to the e-mails
in the order received.

Thanks,

Ken, WA2LBI
