I bought 17 Vietnam-era Collins KWM-2As here in Bangkok 5 yrs ago. Also 7
remote VFOs and assorted ps and bolt on ps and Station Control units. Many
were damaged in various ways, but the point is that all but one could have
been restored to working order. The one was obviously used for parts as
many were missing. I sold all but 2, giving one to the finder/cleaner here
and have the other mostly restored. Included was one with Rockwell Collins
label.
I sold all these one at a time to hams in usa and JA. I know they went to
good homes.
Here in HS, I have 2 KWM-2As restored with remote VFO units. HS1CKC and I
love Collins and he likes to say "Collins never dies." Who knows what it
would cost to make and sell one new today?
