TenTec 299 voice synthesized digital read out For Sale:

TenTec 299 Voice synthesized frequency counter
This unit is used with the TenTec Omni 546 series A, B, C,
some Argonauts, Corsair, and others.  It will work with 
other rigs (such as the Triton), with minor mods to get 
the right connections.
The 299 is used primarily for blind hams who can not read the
frequency readout on the transceiver.  By pushing a button, it
will "speak" the frequency (to tenth of a KHz).  A front panel
switch permits selection of the entire frequency, or you can
eliminate the MHz, and give only the KHz.  There is also a
volume control on the front panel.
Of course it can also be used to give a "voice digital readout"
to a rig with an analog dial.
This particular unit is in great shape electrically.  Cosmetically
it has some minor wear.  $ 190 


Other TenTec items for sale:

WARC band crystal for 24.5 MHz for Omni C  $20

TenTec 289 noise blanker for the Delta 580 transceiver
This very effective noise blanker can be added the 580 Delta 
to help get rid of ignition noise, and is especially effective for 
mobile use.  It is a rare item!  $100

TenTec 225 power supply
This supply is made to match the Argosy transceiver.  It supplies
13.8 volts at up to 9 amps.  This one is in very nice shape.  I can
not find a scratch on it.  Paper work included for $95.

Prices do not include shipping from Florida.

Thanks.
