The calibrator #10 is for the WS62. A manual for it can be found here:

The CTS-3/PRC is used for the CPRC26. I haven't seen any docs for it.

I might as well post this pic of the 19 set stuff that I've gathered up.

Give you $20.00 + shipping for the calibrator and the test set.

I bid on a bunch of 19 set stuff from the person selling on Bruce's post but there's somebody who restores old Jeeps that keeps outbidding me. He bids in the last 15 seconds and always gets top bid. I think he just bids like $100 on anything 19 set and pays whatever. I thought I was bidding more than stuff is worth but he obviously doesn't think so. The woman selling the stuff says she has lots more too.
Here's a screen shot of some of the sales. What do you guys think of the prices?

Here's a fairly complete 19 set on ebay. I bid on it but it'll go for more than I want to pay so you guys can have at it. I would have just needed the carrier and one of the remote controls and a few cables anyway.

This should go for a high price. It is a nice looking setup. The brush guards themselves often sell for $100-200. It has all the cables and a calibrator and is a MK III.

Bidding is wise as you just never know. I've not bid on a few items that I'm sure should have commanded a high price but didn't.

Here's the rest of the ebay pix. It's even got the maple leaf sticker still attached. It's a nice looking unit all right but when you add $200 or so shipping and the exchange rate it adds up. It wouldn't matter if the sale price was under $400 but I doubt that'll happen. I got mine off ebay last year for $75 but it wasn't listed right so there weren't any other bidders. Of course, mine was just the radio and power supply.

They actually look not bad. I've seen much of this stuff go for higher prices. It's not like the old days when this equipment was cheap as it was only the hams and experimenters that bought it. We now have to compete with mil vehicle restorers and re-enactors with bottomless pockets.

If you're talking about the gal who's selling off Terry Grogan's estate, I don't restore Jeeps but I have availed myself of this opportunity to greatly enhance my collection of 19 set paraphenalia which now stands at two MKII sets and one MKIII, all near complete. I've waited a long time for some of this stuff to show up on ebay and if I have to pay an extra few hundred dollars to insure I win what I need, well it beats the heck out waiting another 3-4 years.

Sorry, Derek.

Derek, that's just the way it goes on ebay. There's a fairly complete 19 set on ebay right now.

This 19 set was on our local craigslist a couple of weeks ago. The asking price was $580. I don't know if the ebay ad is the same seller or a flipper. It is a fairly complete bit of kit.

It's tempting but I already spent my allowance on Tony's estate!
