  - Prices haggleable if you get more than one thing, otherwise, best
    offer takes it.  The goal here is to clear out the basement. 

  - You pay shipping.

  - Weights below are *guesses*, if you ask, I will get you exact weight
    so we can come close to the shipping cost in advance.

  - Instead of shipping, you can pick up immediately in Merion, PA (a
    little West of Philly) or in Columbia, MD after Christmas.

  - Sorry, but I don't want it back, so sell it on the net if you don't
    like it! :-)

Computer Related
----------------

Altos 8000-2A Z80-based micro/mini. Two 8-inch floppy drives, two serial
ports, good physical condition but a few DIP devices are missing.
Static RAM (maybe 64 or 32k, I don't remember...) Includes schematics
and box of blank 8" floppies.  Power supply works, but you'll need to
replace those missing chips.  This used to run CP/M. ~50lb  $20

Two Lear-Sigler 7700 Display Terminals. Green phosphor, serial port. 
I might be able to find a user manual.  I *think* one is ok and one
comes on but blows its circuit breaker.  Let's just assume neither
works, and maybe you'll be pleasantly suprised.  ~50lb each  $10 each

Rixon CSI800 D3S Modem.  Up to 1800bps, don't know what protocols exept
a couple Bell ones.  With manual.  Nice case and PS. Don't know if it
works. ~5lb $10

US Robotics MicroLink 300 modem.  Major LSI is an MC6860.  This was
low-volume manufactured in an general purpose modem-shaped aluminum
project case with pcb slots.  Front panel LED's: RD, CD, SD, AL and
ON.  Push buttons: AL, LE, and ON.  In back are a DB-25, two RJ-11's, a
4-pos dip switch, and a mini phone plug for power.  No manual or power
supply.  Don't know if it works. ~2lb $10

CasCo TVM-213 rack mount TV Modulator.  It looks like it puts out on
channel 8, but I can't tell what it wants for input. Some good knurled
controls.  Let's assume it doesn't work. ~15lb  $10

Workbench
---------

TUBES! A TV service person's field tube case!  A wooden suitcase (no
latch) holding one or two hundred common tubes, all in their cartons,
mostly unused.  A couple picture tube brighteners.  I really hope
someone who restores antiques can use these and keep tubes alive. ~30lb
$10

Heathkit O-12 oscilloscope, built from a kit (not by me).  Pretty old
but still working enough to show a 60hz wave.  Very simple.  Might have
manual someplace.  ~15lb $10

VO-Matic 360 VOM.  Almost antique.  When you turn the function selector
knob, a drum rotates the proper scale into place.  Battery powered,
almost handheld, bakelite housing.  She works!  ~5lb  $10

Etc
---

Mectron PortaFon CT2000 cordless phone.  Had to be one of the first.
The handset looks almost like a military walkie talkie, with a standard
Western Electric touchpad (the base pulse dials, though).  Nicad pack
and charger, base, and manual.  Pretty much working, but unless you're
Arnold, holding the handset is like doing curls.  ~10lb  $10

Sharp RT-2251 cassette deck.  Some belt problems on ff/rw, but sounds
ok.  Solenoid controls, music search.  One sided (ie, not autoreverse).
~15lb  $10

Technics SA200 receiver.  One blown channel.  I'm guessing it needs a
shorted transistor or two in the driver stage replaced since it keeps
melting a 1w wirewound resistor.  Smooth analog dial tuner, brushed
aluminum face, wood sides.  Four channels out. ~15lb  $10

Several portable B/W TV's, each not and needing work. Two Sony, a
Panasonic and one or two others.  ~15lb each, $10 each
