*********** Air Variable Capacitors ********

Cardwell enclosed 7 section variable capacitor assembly for/from some
receiver? -- The sections measure: 210, 210, 105, 105, 105, 100 & 75 pF. 
The unit is about 12" long and 3" square with a right angle drive mounted
in the center and a 30 turn scale.  This looks to be NOS (nothing ever
soldered to...) but, it is a mite tarnished on the outside from being
stored forever.  There is also a (Mil?) number on the unit:  SC3188A. $30

Johnson 154-1,  12-244pF,  .05" air gap, about 3" x 3" x 3" overall. 
Rear shaft has been cut flush with bushing and the rear mounting tab has
been shortened a mite.  Otherwise, excellent condition, $25.

Johnson 154-34-3,  20-400pF, looks like .03" air gap, about 3" x 3" x 3"
overall not including 1/4" shaft which is about 2-1/2" long.  Excellent
condition, $25.

Johnson 500E20  (modern equivalent 154-3), 500pF/2KV, looks like .05" air
gap, about 3" x 3" x 4.5" overall not including 1/4" shaft which is about
1-1/2" long.  Good condition except the rear mounting tab has been
removed and it looks like a couple of the plates arced at one time and
were subsequently filed down a mite.  $25.

Similar to the part above but, NOT a Johnson, another 500pF/2KV, looks
like .05" air gap, about 3" x 3" x 4.5" overall not including 1/4" shaft
which is about 1-1/2" long.  Good condition except the front mounting tab
has been removed.  $25.

National SEU-15, 15pF 270 degree rotation, straight line frequency,
variable cap.  Shiny and new in beaten-up old box  (SNIBOB)  $25.
