    Description

    Up for Auction is a classic, vintage R.L. Drake Model 2-B receiver.  This is from a large collection of amateur radios and other gear that our local Amateur Radio Club is selling to benefit a "Silent Key" family.
    As can be seen in the attached pictures, the top side of the copper plated chassis has some general discoloration that did not all come off during our initial attempt at cleaning.  A bit more effort may improve the finish.  The top cover has been modified to create a hatch access.  The metal plate behind the clear frequency display has faded from white to light brown.
    All of the tubes were checked and replaced as needed with the best available replacements, however the receiver puts out that "Classic Humm" telling us that at least the filter cap needs replacing.  We found a replacement on EBAY, but decided to sell "As-Is" for refurbishment/repair and let someone else have that fun.
    Selling "As-Is" for your consideration.  Thank you for looking and good luck in the bidding. Will ship anywher in the USA.
