I will be disposing of my collection of three AN/GRC-106 and 106A
tranceivers and spares.
Might trade for good working Sunair 900 series XCVRs or similar high
quality or military 100W-class rigs covering approx. same range. I'm
open to suggestions on trades.
The radios all include the PP-4763 28V/50A military power supplies and
original power cables and correct or high quality industrial BNC
interconnect cables, correct dogbone, mike or handset, speaker, and
correct mount, work well and are priced in order of the firm price for
each set. Coverage is 2-30MHz, CW, USB, and AM (USB+Carrier), can do
up to 400W PEP output. Tube front end and driver/PA (2 x 4CX350F),
built in antenna tuner for coax or whip. Extras with each set, see the
pictures please.
Here are some pictures:
AN/GRC-106 $700

Spares including complete paper service manual (copy) and a pile of
untested modules and various used parts and assemblies, incl. two non
working parts units -an RT and an amp. -as well as one
RT unit seems to be working OK but having a bad power connector but I
have the connector in the used spares. -available as a LOT, approx.
120 LBS. best offer.
Power supply weight is 145LBS, radio set weight is about 140 lbs.
Shipping through crate-and-freight service or you pick up.
If there are no takers, I'll put them on the place, just wanted to
give the list a chance first. After all, there have not been any on
the place for a few years, and they've gone for large money. I only
want want I have in them, which is far less that fairradio's untested
and meterless versions.
