Hi Yall,

I have been surfing RCU since day one and have never looked in this forum. My first time, I missed some radios. :-(.

I have a small collection of vintage r/c radios and looking for more.

Where is a good place to look? Here?

I am looking for any escapement equipment. Buy any manufacturer.

Also pre 72 proportional radios. Prefer complete radios here on the perportional stuff.

In particular, right now, I am looking for a Single Channel Futaba.

Not working is OK. Overall condition is more what I'm looking for. I don't plan on flyn any of the gear.

Is there a Vintage Radio club or organization?

Thanks

Quite often go to the events each January at Pasadena Convention center. There was a group year after year bringing in their collection of old radios from the forties through to the 1970's. They did not show up this year. Maybe the A.M.A. chased them away.

Then, there is some small group associated with S.A.M. tyr there, and used to be a link to one listed at the Tower Hobbies web site someplace.

Only old radio collectors I know other than my personal collection.

Would you be interested in these servos? They seem to be late fifties technology.

Because I thought it was MY post, but it was Ynot's post, so it's really up to him to respond, and I would not be right to jump in on something that somebody offered responding to HIS post. I just got the automatic email response, thinking you had responded to my RADIOS WANTED post.
