Adam,

I was thinking, and I bet you have a RARE RARE RARE module in that lot... About 20 years ago, the shop where you got those modules got a call to convert a System III 19" table model from 32 volts DC to 110 AC. It was a family who moved out here from a place which was on 32 volts. I remember being fascinated with that, and how I was told that by federal law, some mass-produced household items still were required to be produced to run on 32 VDC in the late 70s & early 80s. And this Zenith was one of those. The original module was, if I recall, a 9-160-RUR. That was the only one I've ever seen, and it might still be in those boxes. I saw it as recently as the 90s in that back room at the shop. Probably not worth anything, but it's a curiostity and should not be dumped...
