I recently sold my KWM-2A and the new owner did not need the power
supply. I no longer need it and so offer it for sale. The PM-2 is in
great electrical condition and was in daily use until I sold the rig.
It has paint rubs but no dents. I can supply pix if interested. This
is not a standard PM-2. Years ago I designed a new power transformer
and had it manufactured for the Collins community. The PM-2 was a nice
addition for the KWM-2 but it had a drawback in that it was limited to
intermittent service (see the manual). This new transformer has the
same physical dimensions and shape but it is rated at continuous duty.
I loaded the transformer to full load for three hours with no failure or
overheating due to new insulation and core materials. That transformer
is in this PM-2. In effect you get a 516F-2 in a compact PM-2 package.
This is attractive if you have limited desk space for your KWM-2.
Capacitors have been replaced.
Price is $375 plus shipping.
