Hello to the Group,

I have, from an estate, a Collins KWM-1 in very good to excellent condition
for sale. The particulars are as follows:

KWM-1 Transceiver, serial # 1013 (w/13C-1 Crystal Unit)
516F-1 Power Supply
312B-2 Speaker Console (w/ SWR Bridge and Phone Patch)
399B-1 DX Adaptor Installed (Does not include the 399B-2 Crystal Unit)
Original Manual.

Power Supply has been re-capped.
Bias diode has been replaced with a silicon diode.
Main unit has had all the electrolytics changed, and 1 Black Beauty (The
Black Beauty was causing problems in the ALC circuit)
All tubes checked and replaced as needed.
All switches and controls cleaned and lubricated.

Full power output on all three bands.

I would suggest that the buyer replace all the Black Beauty's, and check the
coupling and by-pass caps as this is a 50 year old radio.

I have had it on-the-air and have gotten good reports.

Picture is available, please request so I can send it off list.

Asking price is $2200.00 plus shipping for all.. (Conus Only)

If you are interested, please email me directly at [email protected].

There is no warranty stated or implied, but the equipment will be guaranteed
not to be DOA.

If you wish to hear the rig on-the-air, please call me at 248-693-3638 and
we can set-up a sked.
