FA: Collins 51J-4

The 51J-4 is such a cool receiver. I use mine all the time. I like
to leave the cover off the cabinet so I can watch all the cams and
PTO's in operation. It's a mechanical marvel.

Agreed -- I have a J-3, same except for the IF filtering.
But what you REALLY need is an R-390 (A) !

You'd love a Kleinschmidt TT-98.

For sheer beauty, elegance, serviceability, and fun to watch, nothing beats the
original Teletype Model 15. --Mike K.
