[FARC] Fwd: FS: Ham & Computer Stuff (and more)

[Bill Reinhardt]

(Sorry for the blank posting earlier.  Here's the posting I was trying to make....)


Greetings, all!  I've been cleaning out some old electronic parts and unused ham equipment and offer the following for your consideration:

- Icom IC-230 2-meter mobile rig. Don't know if it works.

- Hallicrafters SX-101A HF receiver. Broken pitch control knob. $200 obo

- Heathkit TX-1 Apache AM transmitter. $300 obo   (or SX-101A and TX-1 for $400)

- (4) UPC BackUPS 280 battery backup units.  I'm told they worked before being taken out of service, but the batteries are dead.  They use standard 12V @ 7Ah sealed lead acid batteries, similar to a standard PowerSonic PS1270 battery, available most places for $15-25.   $10 for each unit.

- A pair of 49MHz 5-channel headset radios made by Radio Shack. Great for the kids. $10/pr.

Enough components to make ten, 10-second voice recorders.  If no one wants the whole lot, I am willing to sell individual components.
Parts include:
- (10) small black plastic enclosures by Hammond Mfg., 4.7" x 3.5" x 4.85".
- (10) ISD-1110 IC "Chip-Corder", a 10-second EEPROM non-volatile analog voice recorder chip.
- Through-hole and surface-mount resistors and capacitors of various values.
- A whole bunch of 9V battery snaps.
$40 for the whole lot.  Let me know if you're looking for a specific component value; I won't bore you with details here.

Want vintage computer parts? You're in luck: 30 & 72 pin RAM, 486 motherboards. Cases, monitors, keyboards, oh my!  They work great for packet or basic APRS stations.

There's other miscellaneous non-ham stuff too: a dishwasher, model railroad accessories, 2 cordless phones, 4 lawn sprinkers, and some home automation stuff including 2 digital thermostats, among other things.

Feel free to email or call (1-301-733-9268) anytime if you'd like more information or photos.  There will likely be more to follow as spring cleaning continutes.
