Hi Gang!!


>       It's time to pay more doctor bills.  So I'm selling my SA-2060 
> tuner.  Here's the description of
>the rig.  The front panel is very nice and so are the knobs.  All original 
>except for the roller inductor knob
>which I changed to a large Raytheon Style crank knob.  It's lots easier to 
>use the roller with the crank knob
>than Heath's round knob.  I do have the original knob and it will go with 
>it.  I changed out one insulator for the
>long wire antenna in the rear because it was broken.  So the replacement 
>came from SSN and it's a bit longer
>but quite usable.  This tuner also has a balun installed.  It's not a 
>Heath original but it is a toroid core from
>SSN and I wound it with #10 gauge teflon wire and it's mounted where the 
>original would go.  It's mounted with
>a plastic insulator standoff and so it's more than equivalent. The 
>original cover for the insulators was missing when I got
>this so I have a set of hex standoffs that I mounted on the back and a 
>clear plastic cover that goes over the three
>insulators to keep you from getting burnt from the RF off of the terminals 
>and it gets screwed to the standoffs.
>The cover was repainted with gloss black because the paint was in rather 
>bad shape.
>It looks pretty good, but you could get Hartzell MFG (they did the Drake 
>cabs) to repaint it for $25 and it would be original.
>I have a copy of the SA-2060A manual that goes with it.  I will sell it 
>for $285 and that price includes the shipping to anywhere in the
>lower 48 states.  If I don't get any takers on this it will go to that 
>infamous auction place in cyberspace.  Ya got till Saturday
>If you want to see what you're buying, here's the URL to the 
>Pictures.  Click on the small pics to make them big enough to see:

>If you need any other questions answered, ask away till Saturday at 7 PM PST

Thanks!!
