I have the following for sale:
1) ICOM IC-290A, good condition, $150.00
2) Heath HM-2102 VHF (6 & 2 meters) wattmeter, works fine, $25.00
3) Heath HM-102 HF wattmeter, works fine, SWR calibrate pot is a little
noisy. $25.00
4) Ten Tec 1209 6-meter transverter with 2-meter IF. I built this and
find that it puts out less power than specs indicate (about 4-1/2 watts)
when driven by my IC-290A. Otherwise it works fine with good on-air
reports. In excellent condition (aside from low output power) with
assembly manual. $45.00
5) Homebrew 5-element 222 yagi (48-inch boom) with store-bought driven
element (K1FO, I think) and insulated through-the-boom 3/16th inch
diameter parasitic elements. It needs a boom/mast bracket since I used
this on a rover with the tail of the vertically polarized yagi slipped
into the front-end of my 2-meter yagi. Worked great! $25.00
6) HP 608D signal generator. Works fine except the output metering, for
calibrating the generator output, is not working. I have verified the
output and the attenuator calibration on a spectrum analyzer (down to
the -80bm floor of the SA) and the attenuator tracks nicely. Includes
full manual on CD-ROM and a couple of spare pencil triodes that were
pulled from an old 608A. $40.00
7) Tripp-Lite PR-40 13.8 volt/40 amp DC power supply. Runs my FT-301D
and VHF gear easily.Good physical condition. $70.00
8) HyGain TH6DX triband (20/15/10) yagi with documentation. This (and
items 9 and 10) is part of the KD7OJM estate and I am reducing the price
to $150.00. The beam is assembled and on the ground behind my garage. I
have bought some replacement stainless steel hardware that was missing
on the original HyGain element clamps. Some of those clamps that were
missing were replaced by whoever had the antenna up last (I don't know
if it was Merle) and they used regular stainless hose clamps, which work
fine. The only other missing item is a clamp to attach a wire form one
side of the Beta match to the driven element...the other clamp is in
place. Overall the TH6DX is in good shape with no rust or damage
evident...although it would be strongly suggested that the buyer replace
the rubber components (trap and element end caps) that are available to
under $27.00 from MFJ/HyGain.
9) SCS 2-meter FM/SSB solid state amplifier. 4 watts in gets 25 watts
out. The case and front panel are a little banged up but the amp works
nicely! $25.00
10) Kenwood TR-2500 2-meter HT wth "rubber duck". Battery is no good so
I cannot test but Merle's widow says he used to use this HT so I believe
that replacing the battery should get it fully operational. I've been
told by someone who has done it that the battery pack can be split open
and the individual cells replaced...he had it done at one of the Reno
battery stores for jjust over $10.00. The '2500 has a single frequency
CTCSS board that should be set to 123Hz. The radio is in nice condition.
$25.00
Local pickup on the larger items is necessary...shipping, at the buyer's
expense, might be arranged on the smaller items. Payment of Postal
money order preferred.
Thanks,
Jack, AE7DX
