[Hammarlund] HQ-170AC VHF & speaker for sale

[Craig Roberts]

Hi Hammarlund fans,

I have for sale a nice HQ-170AC VHF. I've completely recapped this 
receiver (electrolytics and paper items), replaced all out of spec 
resistors, "De-Oxited" all switches and tube socket pins, retubed the 
set and properly aligned it. This radio (including the clock) works just 
as it should.  Electrically, it's 100-percent and should outlive us all.

Cosmetically, it's about an 8 orm foir you CCA types, good to very 
good.  The front panel is excellent with all lettering intact, no wear 
around the knobs and no corrosion. The only flaw is a rub mark where the 
"VHF" badge was removed by a previous owner.  All knobs are present and 
correct.  The chassis is clean except for some nooks and crannies. An 
hour with a Q-Tip would fix it up.

The outside of the trim ring has been stripped and polished. It looks 
very nice, but is not authentic.  The case has its original paint but is 
scarred in a couple of places. There are no dents, however.

I will repaint the trim ring and cabinet for an extra $25.00, if you 
wish, or you can do it yourself for free. I'll even send you a spray can 
of the correct refinishing paint from Mike Shelton, if you wish.

The receiver will be sold with matching S-200 speaker which is in 
excellent shape and works perfectly.

Price for the pair including shipping within the continental U.S is 
$375.00, please ($400 with repaint). Pay Pal is preferred.

Many thanks and 73,

Craig
