[QuadList] TRT-1 and TR-3 available!

Tue Feb 8 09:02:16 CST 2011

When would you be doing this?

The other thing is do you have a place to start or would this be a move and 
 then months later get into the restoration?

I have been to WFIE and the folks are the nicest in the world.  That  is 
the great thing about the Midwest.  Good salt of the earth people.

Great! Sounds like a plan. Actually, our driver lives in  Maryville.  You 
want to go with him and load it up?

I would be glad to help restore it.  I know that machine backwards  and 
forwards.  It would have a home and that is the important  thing.  The biggest 
thing will be getting the capacitors and tubes.   As long as the deck is in 
good shape, it will work.

Besides, my ancestors come from Maryville.  My 5 great Grandfather  was the 
first clerk of the court for Bount County in Tenn.

Hello  Tim,
I (we) are available to move the machine to the TAMIS archive if it  is 
available, and restore it to operation.
We have several TRT parts,  books, video heads, etc.
We also have a full time driver and moving van  at our disposal.
Thanks for the info,

Hellp  all,
I got the following email today. I am very interested  in especially
the TRT-1 but can't afford shipping at this time (and I am  running out
of storage space myself). Is there anyone else who wants to  'rescue'
these machines? (Or move them to Reno for me, for free ;-)  )

Thanks!

Tim,

I have a  couple tape machines that have been in storage for 30 years.
They are the  RCA TR-1 (5 racks total full of tubes) and the much smaller
RCA TR-3. We  have these units in storage off site and can no longer pay
storage fees  on them. Would you be interested in these or know of
someone that might?  I would rather not pitch them as they are  history.
Thanks
