[Hallicrafters] Echophone Commercial EC-3 For Sale

[KA6UUP]

I have an Echophone EC-3 for sale

  Pictures are here: http://s943.photobucket.com/albums/ad271/ka6uup/

  It is in excellent working condition.

  Cabinet is free of scratches but some touchup has been done and the 
color is not a very good match. This really shows up in the pictures but 
in normal light is hardly noticeable. I was going to have a scan made 
and get color matched paint made up but, never got around to it.

  The chassis is clean. Not perfect but pretty good. Maybe even above 
average.

  "The Echophones of the 1940 era were made by Hallicrafters who 
acquired the Echophone Co.
The EC-3 is an 8-tube receiver, 3 bands, covering 550 kc to 30 Mcs with 
electrical bandspread. There are four selectivity options, Broad and 
Narrow IF and Broad and Narrow Crystal. It is a transformerless design, 
i.e. HOT chassis.
One unique feature of the set is that it has a built-in keying monitor 
to allow one to monitor his sending during transmit.
Sensitivity and selectivity are fairly good with one tuned RF and 2 IF 
amp stages. Dial tracking and calibration is rather poor."

  I checked for voltage between the chassis and ground and found 
nothing. Not sure what that means, but, my S-38 will shock the crap out 
of you if you are not careful ;-}}

  This is a nice example of this radio from my personal collection.

I can provide a PDF manual copy if wanted.

I want $125 plus shipping.
