GM to the list..............
I have a "re-kitted" (right terminology???) EICO 723 transmitter for sale. Long story short.... I bought three of these in various condition in order to produce one nice one for myself. As a result, I had enough parts left over to build a second one. I don't need two, so here's what remains.
This is a completely disassembled EICO 723. The cabinet, bezel and front panel are at least a "9". Original meter and knobs in vvg condition. A copy of the assembly manual is included. The chassis is not rusted, but like most copper-clad ones, it could use re-finishing but you could build it as is. A few parts were left in place on the final tube socket but otherwise everything is down to component level. This would be a perfect time to have the chassis plated if one wanted a great looking finished rig. For those not familiar with the rig, it is a CW only rig (xtal controlled) and is a mate to the Eico 722 VFO. It can also be used as a plate-modulated AM rig when matched with the Eico 730 modulator (or any other 50-w modulator).
To complete the kit, the buyer would have to supply: two (2) 40mf @ 450vdc axial electrolytics (my stock is out) plus hookup wire and hardware (nuts/bolts/screws --- Ace Hardware has). The rest of the kit is intact. Many new caps and resistors. Each small part is in individual labeled envelopes. Tubes included.
If you haven't built a kit in a long time.......here's your chance. The price is $100 plus shipping from 32137. (CONUS)
Contact me off-list for any questions. First come---first served. Payment by USPS Money Order only.
