BTW Howie,
It looks like the 2KW backup transmitter will sell for more than the 20KW main one!
Seattle station bought a good assortment of spares. The station JC listens to, asked but I gather their chief engineer nixed it. May ask JC to donate the parts to them.
Interestingly enough Hams are willing to pay more than NPR folks. As I figure one NPR station paid for them, other NPR stations should only pay enough no donors complain about giving it away.
For what new was over $250,000 worth of 30 years accumulation of gear they will get between $5,000 and maybe $10,000!
Most valuable items were transmitter tubes left over from transmitters gone over 20 years ago. Now what a Ham will do with a used 15 KW transmitter tube confounds me!

I resist posting the famous Neumann photo, keeping things light hearted. I didn't know you some kind of Zelig. I remember JFK's last day, sister Angelus sent us home from 8th grade, we didn't get our Mr. Ed episode until the next week. The producer was a famous Simon, no relation I assume.
Ah Scott,
We have just reached a communication efficiency of 0%!
Neumann microphones are not obscure, nor the ones involved.
Never said I did sound for JFK.
I am unaware of a famous producer named Simon. Al Simon was a bit less than famous. But he did have along career and made president of Filmways. (A bit back it was not quite healthy to be identified as Jewish so Abraham became Al."

worked for every president after Eisenhower ..... so you would be about 90 Ed, right?
Close enough, but my grandfather was a ward chairman at one point. So early work was posing for photos and later working on literature.
The local claim to fame was meeting David Lawrence, one time governor of Pennsylvania.
Gerald Ford would have been the first president I assisted on tech stuff for.

Payment! My experience is campaigns, even succesful ones, are check on delivery or wait almost forever.
Hi Ed,
I'm glad some of those intros panned out! Ya know, there are some "hams" operating solely on 27 MHz who run many many tens of KW...it is an amazing part of the underground economy...it is not illegal to MAKE a 20 KW 27 MHz PA, but it is illegal to actually feed it into an antenna and turn it on.
Nevertheless, companies spring up, sell amps then disappear after the FCC starts investigating them...here is a current brand advertising on FriendFace:

Looks like they have a 15 KW version currently on sale...nicely made too! And there are many others who, for obvious reason do not make themselves easy to find...visit a CB radio repair store some day and your jaw will hit the floor.
Cheers!
Howie
I lived in the USA for a year in 1986 as a 29 year old -Lakeland, Florida.

66 this year. My father, a scientist, was invited to work in the Kitchawan Research Laboratory and took the family with him.
I lived on the CT/MA border and rode my bicycle down Rt.8 through Ansonia, probably in 1976-78 or so...sleepy little burgh....I love the Housatonic River valley, incredibly scenic! Too bad GE destroyed the river by discharging PCBs from it's Pittsfield, MA factory for 50 years...remediation is underway, they think they will be done by 2035.
(way to cause thread drift...if there is such a thing in the Black Hole)
