Location: Cedarburg, Wisconsin | Well, if you find a market let me know, I've got a 1510B relic on my shelf that almost went out in the garbage a hundred times already. Museum piece maybe?
Was spectacular in it's day, not worth diddly now in my opinion. I really miss the smell of the burnt coating on the chart paper, the carbon mess, the paper that ran out when you needed the unit the most, the spools that got wallowed out so they wouldn't turn, the stylus that went flying off into the lake when changing it, and above all, belt that stretched and the switches that froze up with use. But you have to admit, it drew one heck of a picture when it was working correctly and there was nothing that touched it for many many years. That baby put a ton, literally, a ton of salmon/trout in my boat darn near every year through the 80's. |
