Thanks for posting your list Andy, there are a few there that are new to me, I think maybe that demand will remain strong for most of this stuff, as was said earlier, on line auctions gives the seller a world wide audience and the internet gives many of us the chance to locate and buy spares etc that would normally be unobtainable, I recently bought an LS3 (Mil.) speaker from the States, it cost quite a bit with the postage and customs but it was in first class condition and was what I wanted so i was happy to pay that price.
I always wanted a Collins receiver, I do not know what I would have to pay for decent example off hand but I am guessing quite a lot of money probably over £600 ? at least all in, I could go to a sun drenched island in Greece for that, but to be frank i would be bored out of my skull, rather have a 390 or something similar every time.
It will be interesting to see how prices go in general over the next few years as when averaged out they do give an indication of relative availability.
Any one know why B40 bits seem to be quite rare, did the Admiralty or whoever ever release their holding of such spares ? if so i must have missed them.
