I'm not finding it in the old catalogs, and I have no way to get down there to grab it....

Label clearly says Model 5050, and Hollywood, CA

Looks like Serial #144. :dont-know

TiDome warned us about people like you!

Those who have never heard it might disparage it due to its appearance and components. Some might prefer dusty, old wood-covered boxes with corroded, tired networks, drooping spiders, and smelly old paper cones.

Thats how all of Fort Ord was when I was attached there , assumed it was camouflage.

enough to eliminate the deficit?

Well, that's certainly them, looks like. It's Ampex in Hollywood, just can't read that on the nameplate.

A couple of us are workin' on gettin' down there to snag that one.

Thanks, 10-Watt, for trackin' down the link....

can you tell whether those dust caps are domes or cones?

[Zilch]

Either way, weather's pretty much destroyed 'em, I'd say, Thom...

Frames might be salvagable. Could be 150's.
