Vintage Motorola PH-18 Tube Drive Tone Alert Fireman Fire Station Radio Receiver For Sale

Needs torn apart and cleaned up properly as there was a mouse nest in it and it does have some rust on the chassis. I cleaned it up as best as I could without tearing it apart. I slowly fired it up with a variac and the tubes light, the green jewel power on light lights and I could hear the speaker working and changing as I turned either nob in the front. I did not hook an antenna or microphone to it so did not hit the transmit key while it was powered up. This came from the estate where there was a huge fireman/police related collection and I think I also have listed the unit that went in the police or fire truck. Size is 15 3/8\" wide by 11 1/2\" deep with the nobs by 8 5/8\" tall. It is dated and I can read the month and day but not the year. I was emailed this information on this---This is a Motorola Tone Alert Receiver. It does not transmit. It would sit silently in a fireman\'s home until the dispatcher sent out tones to activate it indicating a call out. It could also be set to monitor the channel. This is a fairly scarce fire fighting collectible. 21b4d 21/17/14/4d 9/6/14s a smart shopper and click on the all details link at the shipping cost portion of the page.
