PRC F3
« on: January 20, 2015, 08:02:19 PM »
This is just to show that these sorts of things turn up from time to time. Well, OK it is late notice to do anything about it, but I was involved in the bidding, so naturally didn't want too much interest.   ;D

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/VIETNAM-WAR-AWA-ARMY-RECEIVER-TRANSMITER-RADIO-PHONE-MORSE-/151549799293?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEDWX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=g2dEiXhETTs7m1zJR05O1vE3BRk%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

Poor pictures on the listing, but it does show the complete CES with the radio. The listing also included the User Handbook, but this is also available on the net:

Did anyone here want to share news about their purchase?

With an item like that people should at least get some good photos to help the sale ???
Terrible presentation.
I lost interest when the money bags bidders came out.

Still for an almost unobtainable radio the price was reasonable.  I paid more than that for both (each) of mine.  You cant get them overseas and they are not making any more.

Still haven't been able to find someone with the batteries.
