[SMCARA] For Sale: last call - Tri-bander KLM KT-34XA

Fri Mar 16 18:22:49 EDT 2012

Dan, 

I’m thinking of putting up a club station in Calvert and have 150 foot tower to put this on. I’ll take it if you can deliver it (for extra fee, of course).

Dwayne…..

Subject: For Sale: last call - Tri-bander KLM KT-34XA

Last opportunity before it goes to Timonium hamfest on 31 March:  

Why pay $1349 for the 4 element KT34M2 (w/ shorter boom) or $1849 for the KT36XA (see Texas Towers ad in April QST) – true, both are improved models strength-wise but this beam has survived our MD winters & hi-winds for 10 years.  I believe the M2 update kit to make the KT-34XA into a KT36XA only runs $200 – Google it & read the reports.  

This KT-34XA 20-15-10 meter beam is available for $250.  It was in use until removed from my tower & is on the ground in ~8’ sections – easily fits on a car or van roof rack.
At this price, consider storing it until you can put up a tower (or whatever…….). 
Specs:

Boom length:  32'
Turning radius: 21/6"
Element length: 25'8" max
Wind Area: ~ 9 sq. ft.

10 m. : 11 - 11.3 dBd      6 element

50 ohm unbalanced
Power rating: 4 KW PEP
