  My wife and I took a day off from dealing with cleaning out my Dad's house to go through a few antique stores . She found a few nice things for Christmas decorating.
  These followed me home. They are very clean. Now, does anyone have a power supply for these excess to their needs?

  One of the finest examples of those rigs that I've seen, and a matching pair, no less. Very nice find! Since those rigs were often used in mobile installations, most of the ones seen at hamfests are rusty and dinged up, but both chrome and paint on these are superb.
  The power supplies made for these were offered in both 12-volt DC and 115-volt AC types, and if I'm not mistaken they were power supply/modulators, so working up your own home-brew substitute might be a project.
