For sale:  A very nice pile of premium microwave gear, all in the 
Watkins-Johnson WJ-8969 family. These are probably still on the ITAR 
restricted list and we're not taking chances. No sales outside the USA.
In this collection are two complete radios:

A WJ-8969 from Gaithersburg, MD in a frame connected to a 1-4.5 GHz 
tuner. At the moment untested.

A WJ-8969C, which is a version reworked in San Jose, CA by the WJ Recon 
Division (long story behind the bi-coastal aspect of these two radios). 
This is a very rare unit. Dennis asked me for manuals before he passed 
away so I know this unit needs some repairs.

In addition, there is a third IFC control unit and three more tuners, 
one 1-4.5 GHz unit clearly marked PARTS, and two 4-12.4 GHz tuners one 
with no markings and the other marked as having 2nd LO problems.

Also thrown in is a WJ FM demodulator from the SIRS system.

Includes an original manual I obtained from the WJ Bonn, Germany office 
with notes by head technician, Werner Schmid, including many hand 
written (in English) pages on troubleshooting 2nd LO problems. Some 
aspects of the WJ-8969C variant and the SIRS demod are not covered in 
the manual.

$5,500 for all of this plus shipping from 53132. The shipment will be in 
many heavy boxes and a hassle for our crew to safely pack. A discount is 
available if the purchaser picks up the equipment in or near Milwaukee, 
WI. All the equipment is as-is. Contact dk at videoterm.com
