RADIO STUFF WANTED
RADIO STUFF WANTED! I'm always looking for components suitable for building high-quality crystal radios. If you have any of the following (or similar) items that you wish to sell or trade please let me know via e-mail.
VARIABLE CAPACITORS Looking for higher value variables (300pf +), either single or multi-section. The caps I am looking for must have ceramic insulators supporting the fixed plates, rather than the common phenolic (brown) fiber type insulation.
FT-243 Crystals Looking for anything in the CW segments of 80m and 40m, particularly 3560, 7030 and 7040 KHz.
RADIO TUNING KNOBS Like these or similar. Usually black or brown and about 3-4" diameter.
GRADUATED KNOBS Like this or similar. Usually black and about 3-4" diameter.
PINCH DISC KNOB These are used for driving the outside rim of the dial shown above. With or without shaft is fine.
100pf (approx) AIR VARIABLES Usually used in receiving or low-power transmitting applications. Any type of mounting is OK but needs to have a shaft and not screwdriver adjustment. The 100pf ones usually have around 25 plates.
R.F. Chokes Like this or similar, 2.5 mH.
RADIO AMATEUR'S HANDBOOK Anything from the mid 50's and earlier.
RADIO HANDBOOK By Frank Jones....1950 and earlier.
