Not over in computer weenie land of north AL where I work. I would imagine it is from a BC transmitter. You boys in TX be glad you can find stuff like that. We have to wait on someone to part out a BC transmitter or find a snowbird getting rid of stuff when they retire down here.I don't need one myself. I have my stash of iron.

I've got some stuff, too and have gone mining for unobtanium in the past, and I'm sure I will in the future. The QTH.com ad specifically stated that it was removed from an RCA BTA1 xmtr. My question was, are we paying $50 for it, because it was in a transmitter? Are we paying $50 for it, because it's rated for the same filament power as 833's? Or are we expected to pay $50 for it, simply because it's 'old'? :-) -- Driving your AM Rig without a scope, is like driving your car at night, without headlights.

Re: [AMRadio] Filament Transformer for pair of 833A's
The only reason I would pay $50.00 for it would be if I had a need for such a thing, because such things are generally unobtanium over here(near computer weenie land).Not sure about anyone else. Just mentioned it if someone had a need for it. I am hoping that I can find similar items in the future at lower prices. As I said, it is different here. Joe W4AAB
