Vibroplex Serial Numbers per Year

The 4 digit part numbers on the parts list are the ones we use. BLUE RACER SEMI-AUTOMATIC 'BUG' - machine drawing - parts list. Please note that no model information corresponds to serial numbers - the serial number only indicates. The next time I say 'Ya know I think I'm going to take a few minutes to clean up that old Vibroplex bug. It is serial number 85,852 which. I’ll start with serial numbers and approximate dates, then list the sources for my dates, such as when the keys were first/and last advertised, patent dates, sales slips, Vibroplex’s addresses over the.

John Elwood, WW7P, did a heroic job of determing the age of Vibroplex keys by serial number. One place to find his document is on the Vibroplex site here.

Using WW7P's data, I built a spreadsheet and calculated how many serial numbers were used in each year from 1905 to 1999 and then I graphed it.

I'm not entirely sure that this means anything, but the peaks for the World Wars and the trough for the Great Depression are pretty obvious.

  This is a like-new Vibroplex M629 dynamic microphone. I purchased it new and tested it, but it was never used as I sold the transceiver I was going to use it with.

When you buy the bare microphone for $79.00, you get just the mic - NO CABLE. With this one, I'm including a brand new 6' cable with an XLR connector on each end for the Flex transceiver. The mic is perfect for mounting in an extendable boom.
