looks as though polaraman snagged it. Looks like a CTC-9?

Frenchy,

Thanks for the tip. polaraman scores again.

It is only a 6 hour drive for me to go pick it up.

Glad to see somebody here get it, sounds like it works too! ("vertical problem") : ))))

I looked it up on Ed Reitan's web page. Looks to be the Boswell, 210-CT-82. Looks to the low cost model of the line.

29 bucks is my kinda low cost!!

$29 What a steal! It's a 7 isn't it?

I think it's a CTC9. Polarman got luckey because his CTC9 is an actual wood cabinet, mine is a silly similated woodgrained metal cabinet. Mine also cost $280 plus $480 to ship the damn thing.

I got in contact with the seller tonight. He was selling it for a 86 year old Tv repairman. The vertical output transformer is out and it comes with a new replacement. I was going to pick it up Saturday but he is going to Orlando Hamfest. I would not make a man miss out on a hamfest. It will get picked up next weekend.

Speaking of Ham Fests I have been going to the one in Miami every year for the last 28 years. About 3 or 4 years ago they had one huge room just for swap tables, between 900 and 1,000. In the other large buildings they had the manufactures area and displays. Last 4 years it has gotten smaller and smaller. This year it was all in one building and other than stocking up on ni-cads and Li-on aaa, aa, c, d and and even real 9 volt batteries that put out 9.6 volts at 250 Ma. I saw some evereadys on blister cards and if you read the small print it says for 9 volt applications, actual output is 7.2 volts at 13 Ma. Anyway unless we get a large increase attendance I am afraid The Miami Tropical Hamboree and computer show may just dissappear.

I hate how nicad AA's only have 1.2 volts, my digital camera takes four of them and won't go very long since it's already being starved of .8 volts even with new and recharged batteries. Does anybody make nicads that have the real 1.5 volts?!
