Hickok I-177B. And the "restoration" is being taken care of by our mutual friend. By the time it gets to me it'll be functionally perfect and I couldn't care less about a little rust here or there. It's more than likely been through at least one war so the fact that it's all still there is pretty amazing. Plus, I pretty much fell in love when I found the following in the manual.

Indeed, but look at it in all its milspec glory and its ability to test 307As, 300Bs, and all things with glorious octal bases. Seriously though, with ~20 307As to test and only needing to keep 4 I think I can pay for the tester in short order as well as offer help to friends who might need matching services.

oh frack me

I'm assuming you're using the 18ga stuff, right? If so I have some 5/16" NMF that might be big enough to fit the mess inside. Just let me know how much you need if you want to try and pretty it up. I have a spool...

Yes, I've done something similar to that. It can be a bit of a pain if you're trying to house it all inside sleeving but it should be doable.

Congrats Doug!

From what I'm reading the "copy" that is out there is such a shitty rip that it's hard to tell how good it is.

I respectfully suggest you take a week and reconsider your membership here.

I'm not joking, no dibs, no "calling it", nothing. In the unlikely event that I were to decide to part with it some day I deal with that then. It would be horrifically expensive compared to the Menace, that's all I know at this point.

There is no dibs on this.

Sowter input trafos.

Nah, I think your beta22 cornered the market on that one.

Wow Stretch, just... wow.

If I designed it, probably. Thankfully I did not. Don't make me post the captain obvious pic again.

edit: woops, missed Jin's post. Grahame, good post.

The show gets very uneven for a few years, IMO.

Get ready for disappointment.

You do realize that about there's a good number of us (3) that are moderators both here and there, right?

That description is all too close for comfort. And the replacement should induce a grin or 2.

It help a little more to know what about the 900s that you liked, what you didn't like, what sort of equipment you'll be using them with, what sort of music you like, etc, etc, etc. You've given us so little to work with that you're not going to get much in the way of help.
