Hi,

I'm interested in acquiring a RAL receiver through a trade. I have some
boat anchor transmitters as trading material, depending on the condition
of the RAL. A working RAL with power supply would be great but the power
supply is not a problem for me. I have a RAK with the original power
supply or I can easily build one and shipping will be easier without a
power supply. If your RAL isn't working but is complete and repairable
that's a possible deal, too.

I am also interested in acquiring one of the Hammarlund (general
coverage or ham band only) receivers through trade. I would prefer a
Hammarlund trade to be complete and working with a manual. I have enough
trading fodder that it might be possible to acquire both receivers but
the RAL is my first choice if I can only get one.

I have a Heath Apache transmitter in good condition, A Heath DX-60 in
good condition, and a Knight T-60 working but in rougher condition. I
have manuals for all of these transmitters in PDF files. The Heaths have
a few small scratches and minor wear. The T-60 has some flaking paint
and a little rust. I am not expecting a rebuilt, restored, mint
condition, collector item in trade for one of my transmitters. If I keep
the T-60 I'll do the needed body work just to preserve it but I am not a
'collector' and I have *working class* radios here. The receiver can
show signs of use (life).

The DX-100 is NOT up for trade.

Please contact me off list.

73,

Bill  KU8H
