Vintage Antique Spark Transmitter and Receiver On A Board. Antique Amateur Radio

  
For acquisition is a home brew complete spark era transmitter and receiver mounted on a board. The gentleman that I got this from 30 years ago said that it was found in an attic in Chattanooga, TN.

The house was owned by a German Family who lived there during WWI. The implication was that this system might have been used for spy communications, but I have no proof that this was the case. Please look at the photographs of the entire system and then each individual component that is mounted on the board. This unit was put on the air by the original owner and the signal was received in the Atlanta, GA area using 40 meters.

My carrier based CW signal was not received using the crystal detector. I can relate this story because the original owner is now a silent key. I do not know, but I suspect that it does, given that it has been in a climate controlled room since acquisition, but consider it not tested. It shows in the display area well. I want this unit to arrive at your location in good condition. If more I will pay the difference. The item "Vintage Antique Spark Transmitter and Receiver On A Board.
