Military Code Practice Machines
 

First, thanks for letting me invade a group I normally don't visit.

As part of a truck load purchase, I acquired a Gray Military Code practice
machine with the paper tape. It is a model TG-10-J. Looks in good
condition with a practice tape.

Do these have any value to collectors?

There is also a massive Thordasen power transformer with a pair of 866A's.
Looks like a Frankenstein piece.

Any info would be appreciated.

I don't know diddly about military equipment, but I own a civilian code
practice machine that my son talked me into buying (for almost nothing) at a
swap meet. Since I don't have its paper tapes, it's more of a curiosity than
anything else.

Maybe someone who knows about military stuff can give more useful advice . .

They tend to bring about $5.00 on eBay. I got $12 and shipping for a nice
one (It worked) and 30 tapes.
