[Elecraft] FS: 10w 6m amplifiers

[Edward R Cole]

I recently became aware of a source of quite a few Yaesu FL6020 
linear amps.  I have three that all look in "new condition".  This 
coming out of an estate of a recently sk ham up here.  All three 
tested with up 15w saturated output with about 1.5w drive.  Nominal 
1w provides 10w which is advisable for modes like FM or digital, and 
for SSB to avoid overdriving.

I was able to get a manual and schematic for the amp to ID the three 
spring-loaded contacts.  Two are associated with ALC and one is the 
TR ckt which takes +13.5v.  These amps were a clamp-on option to the 
Yaesu FT690R (2.5w) that was produced in the 1980's.

I'm using one to provide full drive for my 150w 6m Mirage amp (needs 
10.5w).  Both my K3/10 and KX3 only provide 8w on 6m which drives my 
Mirage to a tad over 100w (tad = 1-2w).  I left the ALC terminals unconnected.

I am selling the amps (tested) for $10 plus shipping which is about 
$10 via priority mail (to USA).  I have one at the moment but more 
available in Anchorage (which I would have to have shipped down to 
me).  I'm waiting on that until I see if there is any interest for them.
