For Sale: a nice HQ129X.
Cosmetically, on a scale of 1 to 10, it is probably a 7. A few small
scratches on the case, and a couple of unexplained holes drilled on
each side, as if it were suppose to have handles. I have been told
that this radio did not come with handles in its original
configuration. Probably an "add-on" by a previous owner. All
controls work, and it receives very well. The dial needs to be
calibrated with the VFO (i.e. - readout is not actual frequency - off
by several kc) . There is a simple procedure in the manual for this.
I just haven't gotten around to doing it. I have a "downloaded" copy
of the manual from BAMA, which will be put on CD for the buyer.
Photos upon request. Asking $300, plus shipping.
Brian - W5YE
