VHF Rigs and related Items For Sale:

Antenna Tuner for 6 and 2 meters, Two meter HT,
VX-7 Accessories, several Microphones, Wattmeters
/ SWR Bridges, Communications Speakers, Scanner,
Antenna connectors and adapters, and more


Antenna Tuner for 6 meters and 2 meters:

This Comaire LM-62 tuner is different than any I
have ever seen!

Although the tuner is for 6 meters and two meters,
each tuner is completely separate, with no common parts,
other than the enclosure it is in, which is a nice black
hammertone enclosure with an off white / tan front panel.

The tuner has the standard SO-239 connector for an input,
but has dual outputs on each band for both balanced line
or for coax.  This is where it is different.  The balanced
line output does not use a balun, but instead is link
coupled.  This is something not seen much any more, and
certainly indicates its age.

This arrangement is duplicated with the 6 meter tuner
on the left, and the 2 meter tuner on the right.

There is no indication of power handling capability on
it, but I would guess a couple hundred watts.

This one works fine and looks very nice.  $100


Azden PCS-300, 2 meter FM HT:

The PCS-300 HT covers the 2 meter band, and has 3 watts in
high power or 1 watt in low. It has a very good receiver.

Of course it has memories, and scan features as one would
expect. The LCD display is larger than some.

This particular HT is in its original box, and in pristine
condition. It includes the desk stand charger, and the
earphone is still in the box with it. It includes its
manual, with the original warranty card.

All of this for only $55.


Yaesu VX-7 accessories:

VX-7 Nifty Mini Manual
A pocket reference to all of those commands that no one
remembers! For the VX-7.  Spiral bound.  $18

Programming cable
This cable has the threaded connector as used by the VX-7,
but it can also be used on the VX-6, 5, 3, etc.  Uses USB port.
It works great with the free "Chirp" program.  I have not
tried it with others. $18


Yaesu YD-148 Dual Impedance Desk Microphone:

The Yaesu YD-148 is a very nice "goose neck" type desk microphone.
It has both high and low impedances, which can be selected by a
switch. This means it can be used on some of the older rigs
requiring a high impedance mic, or with the more modern rigs
needing a low impedance mic.

This particular mic is in very nice condition. It works 100%.
With round 8 pin connector for $75.


DTMF Touch Tone Microphones:

Yaesu MH-15 DTMF Mic
with up/down buttons and lock switch
Presently has round 6 pin plug, but it can
easily be changed to a round 8 pin. $40

Johnson 250-0761-010 DTMF Mic
It has a 12 digit pad on the front, and is a rugged mic.
Presently with 4 pin plug.
Looks to be unused. $38

CES 655 L DTMF Mic
Like Johnson above, but with 8 pin modular plug.
Looks new. $38


HF and VHF SWR Bridges:

All cover from 3 thru 150 MHz and have SO-239
connectors in and out.

Royce 2-100 SWR Bridge / Field Strength Meter
This one works fine, and looks extremely nice. No scratches,
but it does have a previous owner's name on it.
In its original box with original instructions. $20

Heath AM-2 SWR Bridge
Matches the DX-40, although it can be used with any HF
or VHF transmitter. About 8 inches wide and 4.5 inches
high, with the meter in the middle, and a gray colored
knob at each side near the bottom.
This particular unit works fine and is in very good shape.
Paper work is included for $22.


Heath Wattmeter/SWR Bridge:

Heath HM-2102 VHF Wattmeter/SWR Bridge:
The HM-2102 is similar to the HM-102, but covers
50 to 160 MHz., with 250 and 25 watt scales. It can
also be used to check SWR, and has a remote sensor
that can either be left inside the meter, or separated
from the actual meter. SO-239 connectors in and out.
This particular meter works great, looks great, and
includes paper work for $45.


Communications Speakers:

Realistic 21-549 A
This one is about 4 inches square but only about 2 inches
deep. It is rated for 5 watts, has an 8 ohm impedance, and
is listed as a 300 to 3000 Hz frequency response, making it
ideal for communications. 3.5 mm (1/8 inch) mono plug. It
is black in color, looks great, and sounds great. $18

Vanco SPB-5
Appears to be the same at above, but with a Vanco label.
Also includes gimbal mount. $15

Vanco SPB-6
Similar to SPB-5 above, but is considered a noise
cancelling speaker. 10 Watt rating. Still in original
box, new. $18


10 amp, 13 V DC, Power Supply:

This is basically a generic 10 amp power supply made
by Stabylex Electronics Corp., and is model 10 SR.
It has automatic short circuit protection, and a
very large heat sink.

Obviously a supply with a 10 amp rating is ideal
for most 2 meter and dual band rigs.

This one works fine and looks great also. $35


Low Pass TVI Filter:

A low pass TVI filter is added to the transmitter to reduce
harmonic interference. All have SO-239 connectors, and are
50 ohm filters.

Drake TV-5200-LP Low pass TVI filter
This is the filter that may also be used on the low end of six
meters, as well as HF. It is good for 1000 Watts "average" below
30MHz, and about 200 W up to 52 MHz. It is the newer version
of the TV-1000. $30


MFJ 1118 DC Power Distribution Strip:

The MFJ-1118 is a versatile, high-current deluxe
multiple DC power outlet. It lets you power two HF
and/or VHF transceivers and six or more accessories
from your transceiver's main 13 V DC power supply.
You get two pairs of super heavy duty 30 amp 5-way
binding posts for powering your transceivers. Each
pair is individually fused and RF bypassed, capable
of a total of 35 amps.

An LED indicates power "ON". Six pairs of heavy duty,
RF bypassed 5-way binding posts lets you power your
accessories. They handle a total of 15 amps and are
protected by a master fuse, have an ON/OFF power
switch and an LED power indicator.

You get 6 feet super heavy eight gauge color-coded
cable with ring tongue terminals, plus a built-in
0 - 25 VDC monitor meter.

This unit sells new for around $85 plus shipping.
This one is like new. Buy it for only $60.


Radio Shack PRO 2051 Trunking Scanner:

This scanner will do it all! It has 1000 memories, and
covers from 25 MHz thru 1300 MHz, and includes "Signal
Stalker" and triple trunking. It can also function as
a weather radio with full alerting capabilities. There
are more scanning and searching facilities than one can
imagine! Of course it covers the 6 meter, 2 meter, 220
MHz, and 440 MHz ham bands, but it does so much more.

This particular radio is in its original box. It appears
that it was not used, but that the manual was examined.
I have tested it and everything seems to work perfectly,
although it has so many features I might not have been
able to test everything.
This is a terrific, immaculate scanner!

Only $100.


"Window Line" 450 ohm transmission line:

This is similar to "open wire" transmission line,
but has some plastic insulation on it instead of
being open, so it is protected more. The openings
look like windows, hence the name.

I have two lengths available. Both are new, never used.
One is 50 feet long, and is $20.
The other is 100 feet long and is $35.


Copper Antenna Wire:

Both coils are new, unused, shiny.

Coil of 100 feet of #12 stranded copper wire  $20

Coil of 50 feet of # 14 stranded copper wire  $8


Coaxial Cable with "N" Connectors:

This cable has a male "N" connector on each end.
It is about 60 feet long.

The coax is labeled 50-2 V, which obviously means
it is 50 ohm cable, but I don't know what the 2 V
means. It appears to be slightly larger in diameter
than RG-8 X, but not quite as large as RG-8.

This piece is in good condition, with heat shrink
around the connector for strain relief. $35


Coax connectors and adapters:

Prices are per connector.
Several of each are available.
Most are unused.

SPECIAL: Buy 5 and take 10% off.
Buy 10 or more and take 20% off.

Amphenol UG-176 reducing adapters for PL-259 connectors to
use with RG-8 X or RG-59.
Still sealed in the package. $1
Out of package, 50 cents.

UHF double female "Barrel connector" $3

UHF "Bulkhead Connector" - Double female, as above, but for
mounting thru a window, siding, etc. about 2 inches long $6

UHF "T" connector with two female (SO-239) and one male
(PL-259) connection $5

Antenna adapter to fit the BNC connector on the HT
and provide an SO-239 connector that will permit
a PL-259 to be attached. (BNC male to UHF female) $5

UHF Male to BNC female $5

BNC male for coax cables
standard type $2
crimp on type $3

Chassis mount BNC female
square mount (uses 4 screws) $3
screw in type $3

BNC "T", two female and one male $3


I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, HF, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, and many miscellaneous accessories.
Just too many to list here. Please e-mail your requests.


Prices do not include shipping from Florida.

Thanks.
