Default bags

This is the bag I was referring to Dave:

The spare 22 valves, be careful because the round rubber spring loaded device is often welded/stuck to the glass envelope of the valve , gentle persuasion is required to free it all up.

The 122 sets survived in good numbers , they were specially designed with tropical use in mind , PVC insulated wires were a great advantage. A friend of mine in Adelaide rebuilds them and flogs them . As a novice ham I used a 122 set and had many contacts with it, often with WW2 era signals chaps. The microphone moving coil insert is often troublesome and is a cause of weak modulation . I used the set mainly with CW (morse) . Being Xtal locked there was no issue with the transmitter drifting but I did use the VFO now and then . I recall contacting a Chilean sailing ship training vessel out in the Pacific ocean and a few US hams.
