1. ARE Surplus
2000 S 12th Ave
South Tucson, AZ 85713
520-629-9927
Open Tuesday through Saturday.
A good-sized collection of BA parts, e.g, switches, connectors,
knobs, gears, electrolytics, capacitors, resistors, etc. A
fair collection of BA test equipment. An occasional BA radio
probably crosses their threshold, but doesn't stay long, and I
wouldn't go looking for one there. Prices on parts are
generally very reasonable, and proprietor has been known to
haggle. I usually check here first before heading over to one
of the *new parts* places when I need something.

18. California Metals
San Diego, CA
With the help of a local ham who knew the place inside and out,
I was able to find and buy an R-390A in a cabinet. As Randy
said, plenty of BA treasures are at this place, but finding
them is a big, Big job. You'll need about a half-day to get
through it all. Wear your boots, carry a flashlight, and wear
gloves and long pants. (TB)

Just over and down the street from CM. A great place for
transformers, connectors, and resistors. (TB)
20. Anker Electronics

Literally took me 1 hour to find this place, even with Murray
giving me instructions every 15 minutes when I'd get lost. Was
only able to spend less than an hour and found 2 R-390A meters
and a new or refurbed mech gear section for an RF deck. Murray
has a ton of old and new stuff spread out in two big storage
areas. You need about an afternoon to weed through it all.

They are located in a HUGE warehouse, and though they don't
stock any true BA's they have a MASSIVE collections of OLD and
NEW test gear, scopes, generators, meters, PARTS galore, wire,
and all kinds of strange devices that are certainly VERY HEAVY.
It's a great place to look around and ogle the old stuff that
they buy off companies that go out of business. Some useful
stuff too.
MICHIGAN
1. Purchase Radio
327 E. Hoover Ave.
Ann Arbor, MI 48104
Phone 313-668-8696
Dick Dillman reports: I knew I was in a "real" radio store
immediately - by the smell...There was a good assortment of
regular and fairly modern parts, but the real stuff was on the
used equipment shelves and up on high shelves around the
ceiling...a vast assortment of mainly broadcast receivers from
50's vintage back through the 20's arranged in no particular
order I could determine. Some older microphones, too.
Upstairs - apparently open by invitation only - was a very
large inventory of tubes. Mostly sorted by type number too.
More BC receivers and other odd bits up there too. Contact
them if you're having a hard time finding a particular tube.
The counterman - Daniel McCollough, VP & General Manager, was
very friendly and made me feel immediately at home, especially
after I mentioned I'd come from California to see his shop.
Clearly, he's a man who enjoys radios, his job, and meeting
people. I give it a rating of three stars, worth going out of
your way to visit.
2. Surplus Trading Co.

The name is appropriate as one can find everything from marine

World. None of this impersonal buying of a sealed box and
goodbye stuff one ff the large amateur chain stores. The place
is run by BA list member Dave Floyd who makes you feel

Chuck and I were not quite prepared for what we saw - right
there in the middle of town was a shop window filled with
boatanchor ham radios - a Collins KWM-2, Collins TCS, HRO-5,
Drakes and many other great classics. Owner Chris Sieg is very
knowlegeable about these old pieces of radio history and this
is clearly a labor of love. (Michael Crestohl)
NEW MEXICO
1. Unknown - in E. Albuquerque near the UMN campus
In east Albuquerque, out the street that runs on the south side
of the UNM campus is a surplus/neat stuff kind of store. It's
pretty far out east, almost to where the street (Candelaria
Street????) meets I-40. If you exit off I-25 going east along
the south side of campus, you'll come to a 'Y' intersection.
Take the south fork and go out to 7800 or so (maybe 7500? I
haven't been there in a while) and look for metal rack cabinets
in front. The store is in a six-store building about 100 feet
back from the street.

Dick and Terry Peters, owners. Dick is a ham and BA collector.
Mayfield is in Upstate New York, and those of us who have lived
in Syracuse and Utica do not bandy that term about lightly.
(Sorry, New York City, Westchester County *does not* qualify!)
Dick is located about 40 minutes north of the Amsterdam Thruway
exit. He is an old time gent, and frequently has old radio
magazines and service manuals. (He was reading a 1937 Popular
Mechanics when I came in the door, so that will give you a
feel...). I spotted a big box Simpson VTVM with 1" diameter
probe, several 1940's broadcast table radios, some boy's radio
stories, and a "frequently needed" TV schematic collection as
well. (John Wendler)

rigs, and miniature pots for things like your HT. Good
assortment of knobs which might be of interest to the BA folk.
He might also be a source for BA transformers. He even has
