A.T. scores more radios

[FPR1981]

Well, more radios danced across my threshold tonight. I scored the following:

1. Tram D201a in the original box with paperwork and matching D104

2. SBE Land Command LCBS-8 40-channel AM/SSB base

3. Hallicrafters HCM-261 mobile CB

4. Browning Sabre mobile (working, but needs a meter)

5. D104

6. PDC-600 meter

7. CPI meter

8. Kris 23-channel mobile

Paid $100.

Life is good.

I uploaded what I could. Other pics are too large for the server.

Nice acquisition but one of these days all of those radios that you are gathering are liable to exceed the load rating of your floors... That Tram D201a could fetch you around $500 alone to the right person. Out of curiosity, if you have the original Bill of Sale, how much did they pay for that tube rig and what was the date?

I am going to go through the box tonight and see what all paperwork goodies are in there. I've watched complete and working D201A models with the boxes and mic go for over a grand. Cobra 2000's are also fetching that kind of stupid money.

Of particular interest to me are the Hallicrafters and Browning mobiles. Hallicrafters was known as a ham radio manufacturer Browning, we all know, was a recognized name.

I'm not quite sure why the photos are coming back as too large for the server when I try and upload them, while the first two were shot from the same phone and uploaded just fine.

Here. Let's try screenshots of the original pics.

My Tram D201a was purchased new by my father-in-law in early 1978, and the sale price was $762 with shipping and handling.

T!
