Below you find a part of the radio collection
Erik Thomassen - including other related items.
Mainly "boat-anchors"; Collins, Racal, Hammarlund, National, Redifon, Telefunken, Eddystone et al...
Wehrmacht (radio/radar/nav) equipment.
Solid state radios HRO500, -600, Yaesu FRG-series, Skanti, R&S, Sailor, AN/GRC-165 +...
A small collection of mainly Tandberg & Radionette domestic radios.
Measuring equipment, mainly to keep aformentioned equipment alive;-) Marconi, Tektronix, Philips, Wavetek, HP, R&S; Signal generators, scopes, even an Tek-492 spectrum analyser..
In my loft some 6-7000 valves as spares. Mainly NOS originating from goverment stores( - ).
Meteorological instruments are also well inside my main fields of interest..
I am also involved with two museums mainly devoted to aviation, my part is the NAV/COM/Avionics part. The often forgotten part in aviation! Reading and speaking German, a good explanation of my profession - and therefor may be an explanation of my interrests; Ingenioer beim Flugsicherungsdienst in Stavanger/Sola (Und Stavanger ATCC)
I have a dream of digitizing all my paper manuals; Quite a few have been shared via BAMA - quite some of them have been found on several websites - even reprints with my call-sign have been offered to me as "normal" buyer by manual vendors in the USA...
As BAMA seems to have gone somewhat "offline", I may offer my scans of both BAMA and not yet publised manuals to radiomuseum.org and its menbers.
I am a member of several forums. I am not a very profiled member in either way. I speak when spoken to; If I may be of any help, I will do so. If I consider other members to have better knowledge of the theme discussed - I remain silent. I may involve my self in an discussion if I feel that I can contribute - and even if I hate it, I may be wrong in my statements, but not by bad will... I especially remeber(the)one time that I was in error, then by a mistake.... ;-))
So, if I mix in, i a debate, I still may be wrong and I may stand corrected..
In general I have broad interests within the field of Radio Comunications, ranging from an interested young boy 40 years ago. My occupation however, takes very much of my time. My time to devote to each or any field is therefore limited as for the most members ;-) But, when asked for, I may be of the group's service ;-)
Best regards
Erik Thomassen/LA6TJA
