If this guy wants to start the bidding at $250, he should have a =
picture.
However, I believe that the Portacorder is a portable recording =
seismograph.
If memory serves, it came with a small drum recorder, pen, amplifiers =
and
some sort of timing device, all in an aluminum suitcase. It was used for
chasing microearthquakes, aftershocks, and erupting volcanoes. The
seismometer was external and no doubt is not included. It's a very nice
little package, but of course precedes the age of digital recording.
Kinemetrics and Sprengnether had similar products. It was a good =
business,
because customers needed a dozen or so to surround these little events.

Anybody interested in bidding should verify this information.
