[Milsurplus] Big Ham Estate Sale in Media, PA.

[Ken]

Number 42 is a TechRad T-350-XM, one of the finest transmitters used in WWII.It has a pair of 813s in the final stage, a very wide range antenna coupler in the top section, and is modulated by a pair of 811s.It used an external mic preamp in a separate box somewhat like the BC-610.It includes a very stable built-in VFO. Power supply is in the bottom section and is not obvious in the photo. Power supply has two chokes in it, one a swinging choke. That choke failed in mine and I replaced it with a standard choke. Uses 866 mv rectifiers, which I thoroughly despise. I replaced those with 3B28s.I got a brand-new one through MARS and loved it. I gave it back to MARS when I left Missoula, Montana in about 1979.The state MARS director traded it to a member in California for a B&W T-368.I would rather have had the TechRad. I sure wish I still had it.I sure hope that whoever gets that appreciates it. I heard that most of those manufactured went to the Brits in Africa and were mounted in trucks as part of a mobile comm station.Ken W7EKBSent via the Samsung Galaxy S21 5G, an AT&T 5G smartphone
