Several HF transceivers and a few related accessories for sale:
I have accumulated too many "spare" rigs, so it is time to thin the
heard and pass them on to others that will use them more. All of
them work 100%, are in good cosmetic condition, and include the
paper work with them. All have digital read out and a nominal
100 watts output. All need a 13 V DC power supply at about 20
amps to operate.
Preference is given to selling the accessory items with the rig.
TenTec 546 Omni D, series B, HF CW / SSB transceiver
All solid state, with up to 100 W output. The ALC can also be turned
back with a front panel control for QRP operation. Covers 160
through 10 meters. Full QSK on CW, and a fantastic receiver.
Terrific audio quality on SSB also. Built in audio CW filter and
notch filter. Digital read out. This one is in very nice shape, both
Electrically and cosmetically. With paper work, including original
multi color sales brochure, for $325
TenTec Delta 580 CW / SSB HF transceiver
This transceiver will cover from 160 thru 10 meters with 100 watts
output. It has a nice red LED digital readout. Notch filter is built
in. Of course it has the CW QSK that TenTec is famous for. This
particular Delta works 100%, and looks great. Paper work is
included (plus the original multi color sales ad) for $300.
WARC Band crystals for Delta 580
The Delta 580 did not include the 18 and 12 meter WARC bands
when it came from the factory. I always try to put the equipment I
sell in the same condition, with the same accessory items, as sold
originally. This means that the WARC band crystals are available
separately. Of course they work fine. $15 each.
TenTec 289 noise blanker for Delta 580
The noise blanker was an optional extra with the 580. If you are
using it mobile, or live in a high noise environment, the noise
blanker can be very effective in getting rid of the noise. $65
Airpax circuit breaker for use with TenTec transceivers
TenTec built over current protection to protect the final output
transistors in to their power supplies. If you use a non TenTec
power supply, they recommend the use of a special magnetic
circuit breaker made by Airpax. This breaker is not the exact
one sold by TenTec, but it has the same electrical characteristics.
Physically, the mounting is a bit different, but its function is exactly
the same. This includes an unused Airpax circuit breaker, plus
heavy wire, and appropriate connector to mate with the TenTec
rig. $25
Astron SS-30 Power supply
This supply will power any of the above transceivers. It produces 13
volts DC at up to 30 amps intermittent, or 25 amps continuous. It is
a switching type power supply, so it is quite light weight (about 5
pounds actual weight) compared to the linear type. It is a quiet
supply; I have not noticed any noise from it. It works fine, and looks
like new. In its original box, with paper work for $95.
Coaxial antenna switches (all with SO-239 connectors):
Coax switches by Alpha Delta
Delta 4
This is a coax switch designed to switch four antennas.
It actually has a fifth position that will ground all antennas.
There is also a special lightning arrester "plug" built in
that can be changed if you get hit. The switch is of strip
line type construction so that it provides a good impedance
match at higher frequencies; it is rated for use through 450
MHz. Of course it will handle a full 1500 Watts. SO-239
connectors. This is a very high quality coax switch!
This particular switch works just like it should, and looks
very close to new. With paper work for $65 .
Delta 2
Same as Delta 4 above, except it will only switch two
antennas, and has a third position to ground all antennas.
This one also works great and looks great also.
With paper work for $40
B & W Model 550 A
This model will switch up to 5 antennas, and does ground
unused antennas. It has the coax coming out like spokes of
a wheel, is in good condition and works fine. $ 35
Waters (B & W) 341 two position coax switch
It has the coax coming out the back, and it does NOT ground
the unused antenna. This one is in nice electrical and mechanical
shape. $30
AmComm JV-104
Switches 3 antennas. It is in a nice black rectangular box
Very nice condition. $18
Prices do not include shipping from Florida.
Thanks.
