Since this topic came up, I've been thinking about something -- yes, it's
related to the topic at hand.
Last fall, I picked up a "parts only" allegedly non functioning 509 at a
hamfest for $10. I have since acquired an original manual for it (with
schematics). What I haven't had yet, due to a promotion at work and a lack of
time due to other reasons, is time to do anything with it.
When I picked it up, my initial thought was to use the case (only) for another
project (that I still haven't started on yet), and then to try to restore it.
I also, along the way last year, picked up a Century 21 case (only) for
possible use on that project.
I just hate to hack up either of these cases for what I need to do.
So here's a proposal:
I have about $25 invested in the 509 case, misc. boards/parts, & manual; and
another $20 in the Century 21 case (with the front panel overlay, but with no
case screws). What I am looking for would be a smaller case, something like an
Argosy/Argosy II/Century 22 case, that would be better suited to my other
project.
Anyone on the list got anything that we can use to work out a swap? (Which
includes selling one or both cases to one person and then using the $$ to buy
the empty case from someone else)
If interested, please contact me off list.
Thanks!
