It's in mint condition whatever it is ? ....IM guessing Ham radio stuff here ? Could somebody tell me what is ? what it's for ? and does it have any value at all ? if so ? How much ? Thanks

It's a VLF Converter, just like it says. Takes a VLF signal input from a suitable antenna (from 10 to 500 KHz) and "converts" it into an output that's tuneable on a standard receiver that can cover 3.5 to 4.0 MHz (the 75/80 meter ham band).

Since most receivers can cover 500 KHz and a bit lower, depending on the manufacturer, this converter might not have a wide market. I'm sure there are some VLF aficionados out there who might like to get hold of this.

Oh - "VLF" = Very Low Frequency
 
There is some hobby "lowfer" activity down in that apectrum and hams are known to do this sort of stuff but its not ham band.

Do a google search on vlf and see what comes up. I'm not able to give any more info than that.

Unfortunately that thing is WORTHLESS, NOT EVEN WORTH A PENNY,

IN FACT, so you don't clutter your trash can with it you should ship it FREE OF CHARGE TO ME! :LOL:
