McElroy Stream Key, CW Keyer, cables, and crystals filters For Sale:
.
.
McElroy "Stream Key":
This McElroy "Stream Key" is often considered the best
straight key ever made. I won't go quite that far, but
it certainly is one of the best. Extremely good action.
This one is the one with the black crinkle base, and is
sometimes referred to as the model 200. It was probably
made between 1940 and 1943.
This one works fine. It looks fine, although I am certain
that you might find some dust on it.
Only $100

MFJ-447 Deluxe Keyer:
This keyer is a low profile keyer with front panel speed,
weight, tone, volume controls with buttons for message,
semi-auto, tune, and power. There is an LED indicating
power is on. On the back is a jack for speaker/headphones.
It is 6 1/4 x 1 3/4 x 5 inches in size.
It requires 12 V DC at about 300 ma, or can be powered by
a 9 volt battery.
It uses a Curtis keyer chip, which permits one to choose
Iambic "A" or "B".
This one is new, still in its original box. MFJ sells these
for about $100. Buy this one for $65.

Yaesu XF-8.2M-601, 600 Hz Crystal Filter:
The XF-8.2M-601 is used in the 8.2 MHz IF of many
Yaesu transceivers, including the FT-102, FT-747,
FT-757, FT-767, and possibly the FT-1000 series.
I was told it would work in the FT-1000 but have
not been able to confirm that, so please check
your manual.
The 600 hz bandwidth is ideal for CW, but it is
also great for RTTY and other digital modes,
including FT-8, PSK-31, etc.
This one works fine. It looks fine also, as if
that matters for an internal filter. It is a
"solder in" filter. Only $70.

TenTec 288, 1800 Hz Crystal filter:
A 1800 Hz crystal filter is used for narrow SSB,
or wide CW, or for digital modes, to get rid
of QRM off to the side.
TenTec 288, 1800 Hz crystal filter for TenTec rigs
with the 6 MHz IF. It is used in the Paragon, Delta,
newer Omnis, and others. This one works great, and
is like new, with paper work for $75.
.
.
I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, connectors, miscellaneous accessories,
etc.
Just too many to list here. Please e-mail your requests.

Prices do not include shipping from Florida.
Thanks.
