Purchased MFJ Tuner, Phillips SSB CB Radio and 2 HF Radios for the price of 3 x T-Bone Steaks!

T-Bone steaks must be very expensive these days if you can buy all this equipment for the price of 3 x T-Bone Steaks. No this is not a joke, read on. 

I bought the bargain of my life recently from a shop in town.  Here is a few images.





 

What did I pay.  Let say you can maybe buy 3 x T-Bone Steaks for what I payed for all four items.  Do they work?  Tuner and CB 100% working condition.  2 HF Radios need power cables but I  am sure they work as well.  I could not believe my eyes when I saw the prices on the items.  They are not in perfect cosmetic condition but I will restore them to their former glory.  Hopefully I will find the time.  If not then I will sell the radios again.  The tuner I plan to keep for myself.  Lookout for the restoration project of these items.
