Had to ask, Enjoying the threads on the old T-123B's, and 240s. A few years back (like forever) I had an origional T-123 Green Machine we called them. It had the Magic eye mod tube, but not muh else  Anyone seen one? Just want one for the shack to remind me of my wasted youth.
Thanks and 73, Dave

Allagator, Are you talking about the Yellow Robyn? In Indy I had never heard of Yellow Birds before. If it is the same radio, man they are really nice tube type rigs. A friend of mine used to run one on an Antron 99 and just barefoot was the best sounding rig in town. You would have thought he was running a box with it!
Just had to put in my 2 cents on a great radio!

There was fella here with a yellow bird completely refurbished. The problem with this guy is he changes radios like his drawers, about once a week so he sold and got a cobra 200 for about a week, then some kind of Galaxy, and now he's on a Cobra 2K so far. I had first dibs on buying the Robyn but let it go to another fella. Oh Well such is life. I have enough radios anyway. I have not hooked up all the radios I have mounted on my bench now. I even have an Browning Mk 3 hooked up and all I can do is turn the power on because I forgot how the fella told me to work it, but I did find a manual online to download, I will read it one of these days. Sorry, I always ramble on!
