Hi, I'm developing a game where a military outpost has been stationed in the middle of a jungle to explore a meteorite hole. It's during the 80's. Is it okay if I extract some sound effects from this video to use?

Odd that a previous owner decided to strip out the 20/100 KC calibration oscillator from the upper deck. It's not like more space was needed for the AC power supply.

As an electronics tech working for the Government, I worked on all that equipment for many years. I was lucky enough to receive a modem like the one show. Today though with all the digital equipment we have, That equipment is old school now.

I do realise that the background noise is there for a reason, but I feel that if it was "a bit further in the background" we would be able to hear your narrative... Very interesting set btw 😊

I have a museum quality KWM-2A with power supply and speaker that I got at an estate sale from a good gentleman, SK. It has military contract numbers on it and apparently never used. The 5U4 and 5R4 and even the fuse holder was in a plastic bag. I use it with the 30S-1. Love it... I was asked the other day what was my "daily radio" and I told them it was this one. I have an iCom 7300 but nothing is like my Collins equipment. I can repair it as required. Some of my Collins equipment goes back to the 30K-1 made in 1947. It had been changed, before I got it in 1975 but the power supply components, even the capacitors, are original and I use it. I turned the 30K-1 into an RF amplifier project shortly after getting it and it has run a pair of 4-400A, 3-400Z, 3-1000Z and 4CX1000A projects. Love that Collins equipment. Thanks for posting. 73 WA4QGA El Paso

Well designed magic eye and all tubes too shielded by shield canes and dial spread impressive matching all for air craft standard quality level of accuracy good for users design and National and international use as a model too even to day Marconi radio testing instruments are unparalleled in sophisticated design for universal radio signal Generator with all provisions of calibrated AF signals and mode of modulation choice,shine and quality excellent 👍

This what I had as an emergency radio at Casey Base in Antarctica in 1979. It also had an add-on 2Kw linear PA if necessary. I used it as my ham transceiver to ensure it was always in working order. Used a 20 metre 2 element yagi mostly bare back for schedule with Australia. Also used a rhombic with segment lengths of about 400 metres which put out a whopping signal. I was VK0BC then, now VK4BAC. Unit worked flawlessly.

I used to have a Dovetron!!! It was GIVEN to me. Had been modified for I think TTL output rather than loop. It got smoke damaged in a fire and I tossed it. I WISH I HAD KEPT IT!! I am 75. Got my intro to RTTY at the amateur club at Treasure Island, K6NCG, 68-69, look it up. The club had some 15 gear, and a friend and I went up to the mothball fleet and obtained some 28 stuff and a URA8. If you search K6NCG there are 3 distinct websites, photos of some of that.

Hi Ray! I recently acquired a very nice Navy MAK radio myself. I have been endlessly searching for the TECHNICAL MANUAL FOR NAVY MODELS M0-1 and MAK Radio Telephone and Telegraph Transmitting and Receiving Equipment...no such luck. I was able to find a schematic which is unreadable online....with that said, do you have a source for a decent schematic or TM? Since looking at your video-I have also collected a Heathkit HP-13 PSU that I will be recapping. I am competent to do cosmetic restoration but am just getting into electronic repairs....I carry an amateur license and have some very competent HAM friends...the first quest is a Schematic. Can you point me to where I can find the necessary documentation? All the best! David

The name "PCR" is supposed to mean "Portable Communications Receiver" - so I guess this was based on a different definition of "portable" than the one I'm familiar with.

I have just been gifted one of these sets in an unknown condition, if I can resurrect it, it will fill a gap in my ever growing collection of "boat anchors". Yours seems a particularly nice example, and seems to perform extremely well. Wish me luck!
