    There are lots of sounders on eBay.  Here are some of
the cheap ones:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/WU-Tel-Co-Antique-telegraph-sounder-8-A-/121122828059
$9.99  WU 8A sounder, circa 1920, needs cleaning.


http://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-TELEGRAPH-SOUNDER-/121122234348
$15.00  Sounder, 1920s style, not WU.  On board which previously
contained a key as well, but key has been removed.


http://www.ebay.com/itm/vintage-railroad-Western-Union-CHROME-telegraph-key-sounder-KOB-set-WORKS-/140991856206
$25  Key and sounder on one board.  Chrome, tested OK


http://www.ebay.com/itm/Army-J-38-Morse-Code-Key-and-W-U-Telegraph-Sounder-400-Ohm-/281119471571
$17.50  US Army key and WU sounder on same board.  Somewhat mismatched.
 Said to work.


    There are many more, but they're more expensive.
