[SMCARA] Estate Sale

[Clarke, Frederic]

The following items are available from the estate of John, KB3AMO:

1.  Mirage B-510G Two Meter amplifier.  This takes your HT's 5 watts and puts out 100 Watts.  No more "scratchy signal or picket fencing"! Has built-in low noise pre-amp for receive and switchable for FM or SSB. Dollar a Watt - $ 100

2.  MFJ-949E Versa-Tuner II.  This is a 300 watt, manual antenna tuner with VSWR meter. Nice condition. $ 75

3.  MFJ-1278 Super Packet TNC Turbo. This is MFJ's answer to the PC Packratt PK-232, with some added features.  Has packet mailbox, KISS mode, 300/1200/2400 baud modem. Does HF or V/UHF. Includes FAX and PACTOR modes. Separate input for HF and V/UHF with tuning indicator.
$ 50

4.  MFJ-493 Memory keyer. Works with a paddle and  has many features including CW practice, etc. $ 35

5.  MFJ-462B and MFJ-1214 Multi-Reader and Multi-Mode interface.  These were designed to decode RTTY and other early digital modes. They also do CW, poorly as do most readers not dealing with perfect machine sent Morse! $ 25 for both.

Now for the "fun" items:

6.  Hallicrafters CB-7. This is a genuine, early 1960's, tube type, crystal controlled, AM, Citizen Band transceiver. No crystals in it, but it would look totally cool in your shack. I would probably crystal it up on 29.0 and monitor 10 meters for band openings on AM! $ 25

7.  Knight KG-220.  Monitor receiver for 30-52 MHZ. Works!  John used this to monitor the old St Mary's 33.94 police net. Yes police and fire dispatch used to be on low band FM!  $ 25
