Full kit apart from antenna. Includes the step down transformer from 28v to 14v, the antenna tuner which worked great, and only required an antenna running form roof to fin and back to roof....not to wing tip. The loom is also included, but obviously it would need going through. Used in my A36TC on my RTW flight as required for the Pacific and Atlantic crossings. On the ground in Sydney we could receive San Francisco Radio....... I have no clue on value, but open to offers if you can use it? Located Big Bear Lake, Ca, USA

HI Dave, sorry I should have put location....I'm in California. Spent a couple of months with my plane parked at Bankstown fitting the ferry tanks, servicing and prep'ing for the Pacific. Be interested what your plans are with your T-bone...if you can use the HF, let me now. Tim

Hi Tim, Well, you are just the other side of the pond! Not far. Where did you get the aircraft prepered at YSBK??? I am sure that I can use that HF..when we eventually get the T-bone going, the HF would be very useful in the remote areas here. Our T-bone was N9316Y, and she spent her early life in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia for Bird Air/Air America. We have some history on her, and she was one of the very last fixed wing a/c to depart Saigon on 25 April 1975..12 pob!! We found her in New Guinea in year 2000, got her going and brought her down to Bankstown..and then the work started!! We still haven't finished, but nearly there..don't want to hurry things, but I will have to get a move on before I get too old to fly!! So, let me know what you will need for the HF and I'll see if the budget will stand it!
Hope your Beech is happy flying back home.. All the very best, kind regards Dave

Blimey Dave, I bet your T-bone could tell us a few stories Seriously, you should post the story of it's recovery and resto' here...I'm sure the BT community would love to hear more! My TC is long gone. I decided I preferred turbine power for the trans Oceanic stuff! I'll PM you with HF estimate...I think shipping may kill it for you tho' Tim

Hi Tim Thanks for the post, and I have sent you a pm... If you have a look inthe Twin Bonanza section on BT, and search for N9316Y or VH-MEC, or P2-MEX..we did put some stuff on there ages ago.. Not sure if it is still there. But just briefly, after she left Saigon, she went down to Laos where the engineer who looked after her in Vietnam patched up a bullet hole in the vertical stabiliser..and the patch is still there! She went to Singapore for ages, still with Bill Bird, then to New Guinea where she was running between Port Moresby, Madang and Rabaul for a local shipping bloke. Then the Rabaul volcano blew up, and she then escaped and took a load of folks down to Madang..when I bought her in 2000 I had to scrub out a load of volcanic ash from her innards..but no corrosion luckily! So, since 2000, we have been slowly going through everything, and I am just completing the panel, which I have tried to keep traditional to match her Vietnam history. Modern radios and navs, but no glass screens! The blank space on the starboard panel is for the Icom!! When finished, we plan to wander gently around the airshows etc., and have a display board to show people what she did.. Anyway, I'll send you a pm and try to organise that Icom!! That will be a very useful thing here in Aus! Cyer, and many thanks Dave

If the T-Bone sale doesn't work out, I'd be interested for my 182. It would be perfect for crossing the Atlantic via the Azores!
