Title: RCA CR88A Diversity receivers Post by: n5ama on June 10, 2025, 11:37:43 AM Thinning out the shack and up for sale is my RCA CR-88A diversity receivers along with a US Navy LS-139/G speaker unit and a Delta dual receiver pre-tuner. This is contained in a very nice FAA rack cabinet. All the equipment is in very clean condition. One of the two receivers isn't working, the other works very well. I'm not sure why one of the receivers isn't working but don't expect any major problem. AMfone - Dedicated to Amplitude Modulation on the Amateur Radio Bands
I had a chance to look at the non-working CR-88 receiver and found a mica capacitor (C-51) in the oscillator circuit partially shorted and dragging the regulated B+ down. I'll replace it and recap the receiver on my next trip over. The receiver has been recapped and is working well. The receiver set is in the northwest Louisiana and for obvious reasons isn't shippable. The cabinet is equipped with rollers and is on the ground floor so loading shouldn't be a problem. I also have a hydraulic lift available. Additional pictures on request for individuals interested in buying this equipment. I'm asking $1000 for the set and there is very little wiggle room.
