Heath Items For Sale -
Ham Band Receiver, Grid Dip Meter, "Micoder"
DTMF Touch Tone Microphone, Vintage SWR Bridge,
VHF Wattmeter, Scanner, Phone Patch,  original
manuals, and other miscellaneous items:


Heath HR-10 B receiver:

The HR-10 B covers 80 through 10 meters. Each band
is separately calibrated on a large, easy-to-read
slide-rule dial. A carefully designed diode detector,
plus BFO, tunes AM or CW and SSB signals. It has a
crystal filter for excellent selectivity characteristics.
Panel controls consist of antenna trimmer, bandswitch,
tuning, BFO tuning, RF gain, AF gain w/AC on-off switch,
xtal calibration on/off, STBY/RCV, BFO on/off, AVC on/off,
and automatic noise limiter on/off. An accessory socket
is provided on the rear chassis apron for receiver muting,
etc., and a speaker jack is provided for use with an 8 ohm
speaker.

This particular unit looks extremely nice; the cosmetics
are really great. It has been stored for many years, so
I would expect that it might need new capacitors. Power
has not been applied.

With paper work for $75.


Heath GD-1 B Grid Dip Meter:

At one point, this was the "standard" grid dip meter,
used by almost everyone for boatanchor rigs.

It covers 2 to 250 MHz, with five coils. All five coils
are included (even the little piece of wire that is the
100 to 250 MHz coil).
The box that holds the coils is original and in good
condition.

Paper work is included for $45.


Heath "Micoder" TouchTone (DTMF) Microphone:

This is a standard hand mic that has the touchtone
pad, and was used on many Heath rigs in the 70's
(and non-Heath rigs also, for that matter).
The mic is on the front, PTT on the side, and touch
tone pad on the back. Black in color.
It has a 4 pin connector, which obviously could be
changed.

With paper work for $30.


Heath AM-2 HF SWR Bridge:

This HF SWR Bridge matches the DX-40, although it can be
used with any HF transmitter. It is about 8 inches wide
and 4.5 inches high, with the meter in the middle, and a
gray colored knob at each side near the bottom. It covers
160 thru 2 meters and will handle full power.

This particular unit works fine and is in very good shape.

Paper work is included for $25.


Heath HM-2102 VHF Wattmeter /SWR Bridge:

Heath HM-2102 VHF wattmeter, covering 50 to 160 MHz.
Similar to the HM-102, but for VHF frequencies, with
250 and 25 watt scales. It can also be used to check SWR,
and has a remote sensor that can either be left inside
the meter, or separated from the actual meter by about
3 feet. SO-239 connectors in and out.
This particular meter works great, looks great, and
includes paper work for $45.


Heath HD-15 phone patch / digital interface:

This unit can be used to interface a sound card in a
PC to your transceiver. It was originally designed to
be used as a phone patch, but many have converted them
to a digital interface.

This is the unit with the VU meter on the left and 3 knobs
that match the SB series to the middle and right. Low or
high Z output to the transmitter. The meter makes it great
for setting levels.

This one is all original. It is in great condition.
Paper work included for $22.

I also have parts from a Heath HD-15 phone patch available.
Outer cover and knobs are gone. What do you need?


Heath Parts:

Gray carry handle
This handle is the medium dark gray.
It would have been used on things such as signal
generators, and other test equipment, and maybe other
things as well. It is 4 1/2 inches long with a single
screw in each end for mounting; the screws are included.
$5


Heath HM-102/HM-2102 Wattmeter Parts:

Outer clam shell cabinet (left and right sides plus top)
that fits either of these wattmeters. This one is in
extremely nice condition, with no scratches or blemishes.
$12

Front panel and bottom of HM-2102 VHF Wattmeter
Great condition with no blemishes, and very nice crisp
lettering. $12

Reflectometer Assembly for HM-2102 VHF Wattmeter

I have many Heath SB-630 Station Console parts available.
Most of the internal parts are available, but no clock.
Front panel and outer case are gone.
Please let me know what you need.

I also have parts from a Heath HD-15 phone patch available.

What do you need?


"Wall Wart" Power Supplies:

All of these are "regular" wall warts - not the new
switching type that create all sort of noise in your
receiver. Use one of these, and leave the noise behind.

12 V DC at 625 ma
Many uses for the 12 volt variety! $14

Heathkit "Converter / Charger"
9 Volts DC at 100 ma.
No Heath number on this, and I don't know what it was used
on originally. It can be used either as a 9 Volt DC "power
pack" or as a charger. It has a 2.5 mm male plug on it, with
the tip positive, so it can be used on many devices. $10

9 Volt DC at 500 ma
This one was used on a MFJ 422 keyer, but will also power
other items needing 9 V DC at low current. It has a
2.5 mm male plug on it, tip positive. $12


Gateway Laptop Computer:

This Gateway 4025 GZ laptop computer is ideal for the
ham shack. It has what is needed for ham use. The
Intel CPU is at 1.4 GHz, with 1 Meg cache. It has 1 G
RAM, with a 40 G hard drive which has a fresh install
of Windows XP Professional, with SP3, MS Office Professional
2010, and Map Point 2010. Of course it has a DVD player
/ CD burner. Its battery appears to be in very good shape
giving about an hour and a half of service.

Cosmically, this laptop looks close to new. There is a
very slight amount of wear around the power button, but
no scratches or defects. It comes in its original carton,
with the original packing, manuals, and other assorted "stuff".

Only $125.


Reference Data for Radio Engineers:

This book published by Sams / ITT is somewhat similar
to an ARRL Handbook, but in much more depth and detail,
since it is designed for engineers.

This book covers the fields of research, development,
production, operation and education for radio engineers.
It is loaded with tables and charts necessary in
communications. Excellent resource book when looking for
data,from the acoustic spectrum to radio wave propagation.

This one is the Sixth Edition printed in 1978, but the
basic information has not changed much.

This one is hardback, and it is in excellent condition,
close to new. The cover does not even appear to be worn.
This exact book in this condition is selling on Amazon
from between $123 and $338.
Buy this one for only $75.
