LISTING TITLE: Pocket Guide to Collins Amateur Radio Equipment 1946 to 1980 Miller 1st Ed. 1995 NOTES ON LISTING TITLE: The actual full title of this Pocket Guide is as follows: “The Pocket Guide to Collins Amateur Radio Equipment 1946 to 1980”. The author is Jay H. Miller, with his call sign noted on the cover as “KK5IM”. I’m not sure if the next to last character in his call sign is a capital “I” or a numeral “1”. I had to remove the initial word “The” from the Guide’s complete title, to make room in the space allowed for an eBay listing’s title to add “1st Ed. 1995” (the Guide itself on an inside “title page” spells that status out as “First Edition 1995”). “Miller” is the last name of the author, Jay H. Miller. The “Contributing Editor” is Butch Schartau, KOBS. Condition: To get the best idea of what excellent condition this item is in, please look at the photos taken from various angles and distances of representative views of this item. I believe in “full disclosure”; besides general views, if I see something that I believe someone seriously interested in adding this item to their library/collection, could possibly care about, I’ll show one or more closeups. I can post up to 24 photos on this listing (as of when it first appears, you should see at least 20 out of 24) and I think you’ll agree after viewing the photos, and then if you are the buyer of this item and look very hard to see whether I hid anything that someone would care about regarding the condition of this item, that there weren’t 24 “problems” to be shown. One note about the photos: The text and some illustrations on the pages of this item look faded in some of the photos. They in fact don’t look faded at all. That “look” was caused by the glossy surface. All pages are in reality equal in quality of appearance to the clearest, non-faded-looking, images you can see in the photos. Here is a word for word copy of the information I was able to fit into a maximum 1000 character (including spaces, punctuation, letters etc.) that is provided to sellers by eBay when selling an item not described simply as “New”. I’m setting it out below in italics to make it stand out from the rest of the included information here: This Pocket Guide is in near-new and near-mint condition. I obtained this and a lot of commercial and amateur radio related items recently from a reseller who had stored a large lot of electronics and had not sold much of it for years (was in semi retirement at this point), and had to leave a lot of things behind when he moved out of state in late September 2024. He had not invested a lot of time or effort in researching what he then had and used to sell almost exclusively at ham radio swap meets in Northern California. Appears hardly used. No notations, “dog-eared” corners, etc. This is printed on what I’d call “glossy cardstock” paper; the pages are thicker than “note cards”, for example. It’s something of a miracle that this has hardly a mark on it (I’m including photos of anythng that jumped out at me as not simply “New”). The binding spirals are in top condition; most aren’t bent at all, and those few that are, are barely so. Close up photos bear me out on this. Enjoy! I have known for over 20 years, through associating with the ham radio community in Northern California, that the words “Collins” and “Rockwell Collins” are magical words to the ears of the (likely worldwide on this issue) Ham Radio community. I have rarely come across any items bearing those words that are in anywhere near as good a condition as this Pocket Guide is. FREE “ECONOMY CLASS” SHIPPING (MEANS YOU MIGHT GET A FREE UPGRADE TO FASTER SERVICE): eBay defines “Economy Class” shipping as meaning a shipping service that is supposed to get a buyer’s item to them within 10 business days after being given to the shipper by the ebay seller (plus, in our case, our standard 1 business day handling time between payment date and shipment date). When you choose “Free Shipping”, we will pick from available carriers that will commit to delivering your item(s) to you at least that quickly, based on whichever method costs us the least. In this case, that very likely means we’d be using USPS Media Mail. And if that means choosing a “Higher” shipping class such as “Standard” class Shipping, when doing so is less expensive for us than using an often slower “Economy” service such as “FedEx Ground Economy” class, we’ll “upgrade” you to a higher speed service at no added cost. This may sound odd, that a “slower” service might cost us more than a “faster” one, but it’s literally true! (Odds are that in this case, USPS Media Mail will be the least expensive option we’d be entitled to use for Free shipping.) EXPEDITED SHIPPING VIA USPS PRIORITY MAIL FOR $5 EXTRA You can decide at time of checkout to pay $5 extra for us to ship this item USPS Priority Mail if you’re in a hurry (and want to be sure that we’ll use Priority Mail instead of a likely slower — possibly days slower, depending on circumstances — alternative allowed by the terms of this listing for “Free Shipping”). Please note that we are referring here to “USPS Priority Mail”, not the much more expensive “USPS Priority Mail Express” service (formerly known as “Express Mail”). FREE LOCAL PICKUP (option 1 of 2 free pickup options) IF YOU WILL BE ATTENDING A “HAM RADIO CONVENTION’S SWAP MEET” IN SAN RAMON, CA, ON OCTOBER 20, 2024 The amateur (“Ham”) radio community periodically has local and regional “Swap Meet” events where people come to buy, sell, and/or trade “stuff”, much of it with at least some connection to the radio / electronics hobby. I will be selling at such an event in San Ramon, CA, on Sunday, October 20, 2024, from approximately 6am until noon. This is part of a regional Ham Radio convention, which also features days of panels, ham radio license testing, etc. I can’t put the full address, or even the name, of the venue for that event, in this listing since that would be against certain eBay rules, so for now I’ll just say it’s an outdoor space and that the swap meet portion of this event will run roughly from 6am until noon on that Sunday. If you’d like to meet (after full payment has been made before the event itself) to personally pick this item up at that swap meet (I won’t be there for other parts of the convention), you can choose “Free Local Pickup” (see more details below) and, after paying for your UPS(s) in advance, and come collect what you’ve bought and already paid for at the event during those llimited hours, after contacting me to work out the pickup details such as the full address (and to confirm that you will show up, so that I’ll stay at that venue until at least noon on that day). This San Ramon opportunity is a special offer, as I don’t maintain a home or other location in or close to San Ramon, CA where I could arrange to meet someone for a free pickup other than on this specific date and occasion; any other “Free Local Pickup” is therefore likely only to take place where I live, in San Leandro, CA. The San Ramon event is just a part of a larger event that lasts an entire weekend (October 18-20), though the “swap” portion of that event is only from about 6am until noon on the 20th. This is an outdoor event, in this case taking place at a hotel, which for the same reasons mentioned earlier, I can’t disclose the name or address of except to a buyer after they have purchased any item(s) through this listing. This event sometimes gets rained out, but usually the rain doesn’t last for the entire posted time of the Sunday event, and unless it’s already “pouring” by the time I’d be departing for the event, I’ll be there (with some pop up shelters, and tarps, just in case), rain or shine. This event gets people coming out to participate from a broader area, mainly from the West Coast, so if you’re interested in electronics in general, or the ham radio hobby in particular, this might be a great event for you — though if you’re going to go inside the event space you’d need to buy a ticket/pass. That’s not needed if all you want to do is go to the swap meet and get the UPS there. I expect to be a vendor there for that Sunday morning swap meet only, from around 5:30am until noon. I may already have sold the item listed here by the time that ham swap begins on October 20, so please don’t assume you can just show up without having yourself already bought and paid for the item. If this listing is still “live” on eBay when you are ready to buy, this special pickup option would be available — but be sure to buy and pay before you go out there, and try to do so before the last minute so that I won’t end up selling the item Of course, if you do buy it and choose “free pickup” instead of shipping, I’d bring it to that event for you if you do let me know that’s where you’d llike to get it. For more details please contact me before you buy, through eBay messaging, to make sure that any such event where we might be able to set up a “free local pickup” will work for both of us. FREE LOCAL PICKUP (BY APPOINTMENT ONLY; this is option 2 of 2 free pickup options): PLEASE READ IF YOU WANT TO PICK THIS UP FROM US AT NO CHARGE TO YOU OTHER THAN YOUR PURCHASE PRICE (plus tax if added by eBay): If you want the Free Local Pickup option, it is much better to make that choice during “ebay checkout” before you finish and pay. Ebay used to be very strict about that, though apparently it is now possible, if done very soon after purchase, to arrange with the seller for a local pickup, confirmed in writing by messages between buyer and seller so that ebay will be able to review those messages and decide if to approve an after-the-fact decision by the buyer to want the “local pickup” option, rather than the otherwise automatic choice by eBay of shipping if no other choice was made before Checkout was complete, to apply. Since I almost always my listings set up to have a one business day turnaround time between date of payment and date of shipment (this will sometimes be temporarily seen as 2 or more days, usually because I will be out of town for a few days and won’t be able to ship as quickly as usual after a purchase), any post-payment wish to change your choice on this topic has to be done quickly so that I don’t get a “ding” on my timely shipments record for not shipping as fast as the listing says I would do, that I then have to spend would could be an hour or more on the phone, trying to get ebay to remove. And one more thing: We’re a small outfit that does not have an always-available pickup or customer service department, so pickups must be by appointment only. Please don’t show up unannounced and assume you can be helped. We’re reasonable people at this end, however, as our feedback should show, so if we work together, setting up an appointment that works for all should not be difficult. Thanks! RETURNS IN GENERAL: Please be sure to save all shipping and packing materials (box, padding, etc.) for the length of the potential return period, in the event a return is to take place. If you have any questions at all about the condition of the materials, however, please contact us first to confirm that we would authorize you to re-use those materials in returning an item to us, since sometimes those materials get chewed up enough during initial delivery that they need to be repaired or replaced before being re-used.

BUYER NO-FAULT RETURNS: 30 calendar day return time, running from date of first attempt at delivery by the chosen shipper to your ebay verified shipping address, if you return these for any or no reason in the same condition as sent. However, if you do something that causes damage, e.g., if you spill your drink into this, that is a good example of something that would not qualify as a “BUYER NO-FAULT RETURN”. CLAIMED SELLER FAULT RETURNS: Ebay lets you return almost anything within 30 days after receiving it, if what was purchased is not what the listing represented it to be, no matter what limitations a seller may try to put on the reasons for return (and many do). Please see exact details as provided by eBay at the top of this listing. To the extent that ebay allows it, you must use a shipping class and type that costs no more than what we used to ship your item(s) to you.
