Where possible, every attempt has been made to determine status of each item in this auction, both physical and electrical, at time of testing. However, no guarantees are expressed or implied and all items are sold "as is where is". An indication of "works" simply means minimal testing was done and item does operate at some level. Additional repairs may or may not be necessary.
First transmitter built for and used by WKY radio (Oklahoma) in 1921 as documented on the internet and other sources; includes Western Electric three 216-A tennis ball tubes and type 50 tube (all not tested as of posting). See attached photos. Many of the parts on this transmitter are early Western Electric manufactured.
Initial check of tubes reveals all three 216-A have good filaments. Two of the tennis ball W.E. tubes test good, each measuring (40/38) on a TV-7D. The third 216-A test very weak (3/38). The globe type 50 tubes registers weak emission(24 of 38) on a TV-7D tube tester. Nice display tube.
