I picked up a HW-104 station at a local hamfest from the original
owner/builder on a whim, but now would like to move it on. When it put
it all on my desk it takes up more room that I really have to spare
anyhow. 

All functions seem to work, I tried it on 80-40-20 meters and it put out
at least 100 watts on each of those bands (almost 130) on my meter on 40
meters. I made a cw contact on 40 and a SSB contact on 80 with it. From
what I can tell it has the following:

HW-104 with the following accessories:
	--- 10 meter coverage
	---  CW filter
	---  noise blanker
	---  Extender boards (2) (these are hard to find I'm told)
	--- 5 brand new spare circuit boards 85-1631-4, 85-1627-2,
85-1581-2, 85-1666-1, 85-1627-2

Shure model CM17L desk mic (has Swan emblem on front and Vox- Normal
switch on bottom)

Model HP-1144 DC supply

Station Speaker HS-1661

The physical condition is good for the age, some marks , but it is not
all scratched up. All original knobs.

 I have all the original paperwork to include the operation manual and
the assembly manual with the illustration book and large fold out
schematic. Also the manuals for the 10 meter accessory, Noise blanker,
station speaker and the CW filter. 

 I cannot vouch for the electrical condition, it receives and transmits,
the vox works, the calibrator works, all functions seem to work fine,
I'm sure it could benefit from a fresh alignment and cleaning of the
controls.  The dial slips a little from time to time, but it is not real
bad. Given the age and unknown history other than it was from the
original owner, it is sold as is. 

I would prefer a pickup in the Dayton Ohio area. Shipping would be
substantial as it would take two boxes to pack it right as it is fairly
heavy.  Asking $235 picked up for the entire package. I do not want to
split it up.  If it had to be shipped, the cost of shipping would be the
buyers responsibility. US Postal money orders only, no Paypal. 

Thanks
