Sorry fellow, I wasn't quick enough to post the AT-1 and AC-1 when it came
up for bids. I am not the seller of this gear. I just thought some folks
would find it interesting to know what an AT-1 went for---and the
photographs were very nice.

My first connection with the AT-1 was back in 1971 when my friend got one
for cutting grass---we were both Novices and in high school. He didn't need
the AC-1 antenna coupler and gave it to me.

I guess I should have posted the Allied Knight Kit Ocean Hopper with a final
bid of $200 or so a week ago and still did not make the reserve---it was in
pristine condition!

Best to remember, this is the 'boatanchor' newsgroup.

Yes, the photos are nice. I'm sure the new owner is proud to have it. It
would be fun to work him/her.

Yup - but nowhere near a record.

Back about 2000 there appeared on eBay an unbuilt AT-1 kit. It was
dated 1956 and had not even been opened. It was one of the very last
AT-1s sold by Heath before it was replaced by the DX-20.

The bidding was fierce and the final price was....$5100.00. Not a typo
- five thousand one hundred US dollars.

The photos are very nice. I saved the main one to my hard drive.

I got mine a few years before...might have been around 1967. It was my
first transmitter...subsequently replaced by a Globe--uh, can't remember the
model--before I lost interest and let my ticket expire. I subsequently
donated them both to my Jr. college electronics dept.

I guess I should have posted the Allied Knight Kit Ocean Hopper with
a final bid of $200 or so a week ago and still did not make the

My first shortwave receiver (besides the old Zenith console) was a Knight
Space-Spanner. It got replaced by a Heathkit GR-54, which I'm looking at as
I type.

Nice 'blast from the past.' Thanks for posting.
