WTB 1950's Navy Radio Gear

[Nick K4NYW]

I'm restoring a 420 tube AN/FRR-24 triple diversity HF receiver - all
3121 lbs of it.
I need a few more rack-mount modules -
CV-127/FRR-24 FSK converter with scope
PP-648/FRR-24 & PP-649/FRR-24 power supplies
(any FRR-24 or FRR-37 power supplies will be very helpful)

Also looking for rack-mount modules for AN/FGC-5 and AN/FCC-3
telegraph (TTY) multiplex systems.

AR88s are a good start. I have an AN/FRR-59.
I don't think it has moved in 20 years.

I've moved my FRR-59 three times in the last 5 years while we moved. The
next time my kids will move it. This will be payback for all of the junk
they left me to clean up.

You have not really lived until you install one in a rack by yourself.

Amen - I installed my "lightweight" FRR-59 is in a rack next to the
Big Guy - the FRR-24 is 4 racks worth but the individual modules are
only 40-90 lb. each. My middleweight receiver is a dual-diversity
FRR-60 (TMC DDR-5) - it's 2 racks and about 1200 lbs total. My buddies
are gonna have a great time getting it all out of my basement after
I'm gone!
