Electronic Dimensions

Home

It wasn't a straight-through drive, as we had stopped at the Top Hat Motel in Ritzville, Washington (210 E First Avenue, Ritzville, WA 99169. Phone: 509-659-1100). That nice little place is an old-syle motel and a good value and was clean and everything worked well including the internet (we would not want to deprive you, the valued guests of the Bunker of DOOM, of these updates!). I'd reccommend it to anyone who prefers an unpretentious and reasonable location and wants something a little different than the usual boring names.

So, entering the store we were faced with a huge array of classical electronics equipment of all kinds, as well as a good selection of parts. There was a large rack full of ham radio magazines, another large shelve with books, and pretty much everything from AN/TIQ-2 components to radar dishes. Plenty of the older and more interesting ham radios, as well as tubes, and tons of test equipment. Please check the pictutres as there is more than can be easily described. The owner, Glen Galati, was very personable and we enjoyed some discussions and he showed us around the place. As with all of these visits, it is important to keep in mind thatthere are only random images and don't reflect everything in the store by a long shot. Everything written here is my opinion and opinions are a dme a dozen. We are not affiliated with this merchant but our expectations were greatly exceeded and we reccommend Electronic Dimensions highly.

				(6MB video) This capacitor has two gangs both operated by one anti-backlash shaft.
Acquired this receiver. It will match my AN/URT-12 transmitter well.
	This set appears to be a navigation tool and ha a 2" CRT in the center of the large dial. It looks like new and has a speaker and covers a tuning range from a few KHz to the shortwave, in three bands.
These on the top - are hard to find. It's usually a modified H/P X-Y display with electrostatic deflection, so its fast enough for a lot of things the typical 10" or 12" rectangular CRT with ye olde defletion coils might not be. Its probably a P4, but many different models of this basic instrument type were made by OEMs hacking the H/P vector displays of the time. I have three of these basic things so I left this one for the next lucky CRT enthusiast!
			Interesting RADAR display on the shelf. There were several displays.
				acquired this Dumont 304-AR scope. The non-rack version is more common.
	acquired this choke	acquired this choke
	A P7 phosphor Tektronix 532, apparently.
acquired this H/P-Sanborn X-Y scope.		(96MB video) Here's how we got some of those things out of the shelves.. Thanks to Jacob!
