While I can't match Kevin VandeWettering's 1943 Navy O-scope for age of 
equipment, I do have a somewhat "antique" ham shack.

My main HF rig is a Collins AN/URC-32 (aka KWT-6) from around 1960 or so 
which runs 500W SSB/RATT/AM/CW with a Collins AN/ARR-41 aircraft receiver for 
SWL'ing. My QRP rig is an ex-CIA RS-6 and I also own an AN/ARC-39 which I 
plan to use on 160m AM.

The URC-32, the ARR-41, and the RS-6 work while I'm still trying to find 
time to work on the ARC-39.

Is there anybody else out there running all-surplus or nearly all-surplus ham 
shacks or work benches?
