[ICOM] Fw: ... IC 2KL/AT-500

[Adam Farson]

Hi Dick,

Oh no, I mean "modded", buggered and/or bent by retromingent troglodytes.
There have been cases of serious damage due to misuse (for  example,
ill-advised attempts to increase the output.) Operating the IC-2KL without
proper ALC setup can also cause severe damage.

One of the worst cases I saw was an AT-500 which had been subjected to
approx. 2kW RF input.

Cheers for now, 73,

Adam,

By "brutalized", do you mean by wear and tear or something other?

Hi Dick,

I would say around USD 1300 - 1400. Add $100 for the standard IC-2KL with
factory 10/12m.

It may be difficult to find units which have not been "brutalised".
