I have for sale an excellent condition Heathkit HW-9 CW XCVR with the
WARC bandpack (covers 80 through 10, all bands except 60M). It has
full output on all bands (4 watts with 12 volts or so, can go higher
with more voltage, but not a good idea for finals). Cosmetically, the
face is completely clean of marks and in near perfect condition. The
top, sides, back and bottom are clean with a few extremely minor edge
nicks. Paint is original. There are no mods I know of. RX is super
- just about anything I can hear on my Argo V, I can hear on the HW-9
(though the filtering is nowhere near as good). This is as close to
collector quality as I have seen for an HW-9 that is nearly 20 years
old. The only thing I know of that is not 100% as it should be is the
band switch - you have to make sure it engages, which it does with
minimum fiddling, on each band.
With the HW-9 comes the full original manual, the large foldout
diagrams, the WARC bandpack manual, and an as new spiral bound HW-8
handbook, 2nd edition (which also covers the HW-9).
Price for this rig is $325 shipped. Local hams in the Washington, DC
area can take off $15 for pickup.
The HM-9 is the Heathkit QRP Wattmeter, which measures SWR and power
out at 5 and 50 watt ranges. The face is very clean but the top has
several scratches on it. This does not detract from the performance.
Also comes with the complete original manual including foldouts.
Price for the HM-9 is $45 shipped or $40 for locals.
Take both for $350 shipped.
JPGs of both items are available on request.
Tnx & 73,
