Heath EC-1 on eBay - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

1 Nov 2004

Hi John
 Now there are two on ebay. The latest one is a little
more on the conservative side. Starting at $990 with a
buy it now price of $1250. I don't recall ever seeing
one of these go for more than about $600.
 The first one does come with the plastic component holders.
I wish I could find these today. They were actually half
of the 300 ohm TV twin lead connectors. RS used to have
them but has stopped carrying them. I've found that the
miniature banana connectors from Pomona also work but
they are expensive.
 I like the comment that one can not use the EC-1 without
the operation manual, that the second fellow states. That
is like saying that a person can't use a car without
the operators manual. I guess that is an indication of the
state of knowledge now days.

   I'll hold off bidding on this in case someone else wants it more than 
me:

   Starting bid is a stimulating $2,050.00.

   But you Instant Gratification types can take this gem home for a measly 
$3K - Buy It Now and save yourself the stress of a damn auction!!

   Let's see if it stays this way, or if somebody hits the seller with a 
clue-stick.

  Cheers
