Passing this along to our club from N3MGD:
----
W4FCV, Floyd Amateur Radio Society, is converting some stuff we've not used
much into something we do need - dollars. I'm offering this locally before
putting them up on swap.qth.com or Facebook.
We are starting with a pair of *Astron 35M linear power supplies*.
Originally purchased for use in the Floyd County EOC. *(I think one of
these might be spoken for already)*
I've used both in the last year, I usually haul out one or the other for
use during Summer/Winter Field Day just so they get checked.
We also have a *Pelican 1780 case for sale*. Nicknamed "the coffin" due to
its size & weight, it was purchased to store those 2 power supplies, plus a
TS-2000 & a pair of V-71s, plus ancillary equipment & cables.
The power supplies being heavy linears, and the case just simply being
large, our preference will be to sell to someone or a group that is
reasonably local.
A complete description of the Pelican 1780:

Some of the foam will be missing, a couple of the latches don't quite
latch. However, it has so many, unless you're delivering your equipment via
C-130 pallet drop, it works. The wheels and handles are in good shape. The
picture of the Pelican shows one of the two Astrons that were stored in it.
No, it was not me that thought putting 2 of these power supplies in the
same box was a good idea.
The Astrons will come with the power pole pigtails.
Price: make us an offer.
I'd like to see us get $160 for each of the Astrons. The Pelican was
originally a $500-600 case. Make us an offer.
Respectfully,
