[AMRadio] Vintage (OLD) Power Meters FS

This is a long shot for sure. Do any of you collect (or sell) old meters from power distribution systems or the like? By "old", I think the 30's, maybe even the 20's. A set of nine such beasts was donated to my church's rummage sale, which is this weekend. I'll send a photo on request from a

Thanks to Dave, W6NSE, for providing the needed socket. Guess I'll have to break down now and build the amplifier. Most of all, the true spirit of ham radio shines through when one ham needs an old part...and a generous ham takes time to respond and offer one. Thanks again, Dave.

No, some of them sold for big $ on ebay, so no doubt they went to private collectors. Some is bound to resurface. It's just gotta be a bit annoying to think you're donating a piece of history that you've preserved for years, to a museum who will do so for future generations - only to discover they

The discussion of the Technical Material Corp. price list and the GPR-90 reminds me of when I sold my GPR-90RX, as part of an interesting story you might enjoy. A fellow in Philadelphia had the receiver, source unknown, and it was a hardship sale for not much money. He was a butcher by trade,
