Artifacts in Iowa City has some interesting loot this week. I didn't grab prices on everything but the Argonaut V ($500 on the tag, definitely silent key gear, I didn't ask but they may budge on that?)
## artifacts
+1-319-358-9617 331 E Market St., Iowa City, IA 52245
- Argonaut V (duh) transceiver and 937 ps
- Argonaut transceiver (i don't know model number, bottom of photo below)
- Argonaut Model 251 (this stack looks real nice, ngl)
- Argonaut Model 405 😗
- Realistic DX-160 "most radios" 6-band receiver (beautiful, solid state, industrial design time machine)
- I won't bring shame upon myself by misidentifying these morse key/terminals further
- yaesu open boxes of a couple of looks-new vhf HTs, nothing exciting to me (eg not a vx-series)
- a radius 225 center channel speaker for a 5.1 setup
no connection to the shop, just one of the places i cruise occasionally and thought someone might be super into the Argonauts.
speaking of my g-d I didn't notice that Argonaut 405 has a setting for 10-15m; i know nothing about Argonauts beyond Jason's though. so no hard feelings if one of y'all snakes it, i shouldn't be shopping anyways.
