Icom items For Sale:


Icom IC-746, 160 thru 2 meter transceiver

The Icom IC-746 covers 160-10 meters plus 6 and 2 meters. 100
Watts of output is available on all bands - HF, 50 MHz and 144
MHz, making the IC-746 a practical choice for all-around base
station use. The die-cast aluminum chassis and a large cooling
fan help to stabilize the PA circuit, providing 100% full duty
cycle operation. It has 100 alphanumeric memories, spectrum
display, Twin PBT, CTCSS encode / decode, APF, two stage preamp,
keypad entry, automatic antenna tuner and electronic keyer.
DSP digitally transposes receive audio components in all modes
of operation to produce desired AF frequency characteristics at
the IF stage of the transceiver. This built-in DSP provides:
noise reduction, automatic notch filter and selectable APF. The
digital bar graph meter displays ALC, power output and SWR
simultaneously! The radio automatically selects from the three
separate antenna inputs (HF, 6 meters, 2 meters). A built-in
automatic antenna tuner operates on the HF bands plus 6 meters.
The rear panel has three antenna jacks. The 746 requires 12 VDC
at 20 amps.

Features include Spectrum Scope, 102 Memories, RIT/XIT, Noise
Blanker, VOX Function, Selectable APF, Dual Display, 100 Watt
Output, 40 Watt Output (AM), Built-in Automatic Antenna Tuner
180-6 Meters, Full Break-In CW, CW Keyer, 100% Duty Cycle, Rx
Antenna Jack, DSP Notch, 1 Hz Readout, Memory Keyer, RF
Attenuator 6/12/18 dB, and much more.

This particular unit works 100% as best I can tell. It looks
very close to new, and is in its original box, with paper work
for $750.


Icom IC-706 Mk II G 160 thru 2 meter transceiver:

The '706' Series represents one of the most popular transceivers
in amateur radio histroy. The latest version is the incredibly
small Icom IC-706 Mark II G which adds many new features and
capabilities not found in previous versions. The "G" is an
all-mode transceiver that provides 100 watts on HF and 6 meters
and 50 watts on 2 meters plus 20 watts on 440 MHz. It receives
from 30 kHz to 199 MHz and from 400 to 470 MHz. It features a
removable, remoteable, front panel that allows control of all
features. The large LCD display features alphanumeric memory
names (9 character) and soft key descriptions. The LCD even
supports a simple band scope display. Other advanced features
include: IF Shift, RIT, Tone Squelch, Scanning, Noise Blanker,
Speech Compressor, Mini Spectrum Scope and Electronic Keyer.
This latest version in the 706 series includes the UT-106 DSP
module as a standard feature. Despite its compact size (6.56"
x 2.28" x 7.88"), it has big, easy to use control dials. With
HM-103 hand mic. One or two optional filters may be added.

Icom MB-62 Mobile Mounting Bracket:

The MB-62 is the mobile mounting bracket that is used for
the Icom 706 series, IC-703, and for the AT-180.

Ameritron ARB-704 Linear Amplifier Keying Interface

The ARB-704 advanced interface is compatible with all common
radios and amplifiers.

The input is designed to be compatible with any transmitter
or transceiver, and the output is compatible with AC control
lines or DC positive or negative amplifier control lines having
up to 200 Volts peak open circuit voltage and 300 mA of operating
current.

The ARB-704 has many electrical advantages over conventional
relay buffer systems. The ARB-704 has no moving parts so it
switches almost instantaneously.

This one is new, in its box, with everything that came with it
originally, including all cables, and manual. MFJ sells them for
about $60. Buy this one for $45.


Ameritron PNP-7D "Quick Connect" Cable for most Kenwood rigs
(TS-440, 950, 130, 2000, etc.) to ARB-704. New. $12


Coaxial antenna switches:

All have SO-239 connectors, and work 100%.

B & W Model CSR-5G (also known as 376)
This model will switch up to 5 antennas, grounding
all unused antennas. It has SO-239 connectors, with
the coax coming out like spokes of a wheel.
This one works 100%. With paperwork for $45.

MFJ 1702 B, 2 position
Heavy die cast housing, with a center position
to ground both antennas. Works great, and looks like
new. $22


SWR Bridges:

Both have SO-239 connectors, and cover from 3 to 150 MHz,
covering HF, 6 meters, and 2 meters, so they are ideal for the new
rigs with 6 meters and 2 meters in them.

Quement SWB-2 Dual Meter
This unit features two separate meters -- one for reading forward
power and another for reading SWR. This permits one to easily
monitor both the power going out, and the SWR on the antenna.
Works fine and looks great. With paper work for $40

Royce 2-100 Single Meter SWR Bridge / Field Strength Meter
This one works fine, and looks extremely nice. I do not see

This power supply is rated at 9 amps continuous and 12 amps ICS.
It is ideal for most 2 meter rigs, including the 50 Watt rigs.

This Astron power supply features solid-state electronic
regulation, EMI filter, fold back current limiting for protection
from excessive current and shorted output, and crowbar over-voltage
protection.

This particular supply works 100% and looks the same. I can not find
a scratch on it. With paper work for $50.
