[Elecraft] OT: FS LNR Precision MTR5B Mountaintopper

[Jim Sheldon]

At age 76, I don't get out to portable locations any more and this is 
totally surplus to my needs. I bought this MTR5B "MountainTopper" new 
from LNR Precision ($400) a couple years ago. Used it when I went to 
visit my sisters & neices in Florida and Louisiana with excellent 
results.

I did add the optional tuning encoder (I grew up turning knobs for 
tuning rather than Up/Down button pushing). Also included in the package 
will be an MFJ 9201 "QRPocket Tuner" which will actually handle 100 
watts when tuned at lower power. Original power cable with added "Deans 
Connector" + matching Deans female as well as a package of spare power 
connectors to fit the MTR5B.

Main power cable has 2 series Schottky diodes in series with the + side 
to drop a 13.8V power supply to just under 12 V which is the stated max 
input voltage for the MTR5B.

Rig puts out just under 5 watts on 11.9 volts and cosmetically it's a 9 
out of 10. It has some scratches around one sides mounting screw hole 
that happened when I drilled the hole for the encoder.  The good news 
is, Ihave a brand new case for it, still in the box which will be 
included.

The manual is downloadable from LNR Precision's website but I have the 
original one which has the schematic in it.  The one on LNR's website is 
very abbreviated. A printed copy of the original will be included.

Asking $325 Shipped in the US for everything.

Anyone interested please contact me off list, (w0eb at cox.net) for 
pictures, to say "I'll Take It" or for further information. Payment by 
USPS Money Order or Pay Pal would be preferred.
