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.
