I acquired a Hercules II (Model 420) amp from a friend who had "smelled
smoke." Sent it to TenTec for repair where it was analyzed as economically
unrepairable considering their parts and labor, and returned at my request.
One of the final FET transistors was evaluated as bad, and it requires
matched sets (4x banks of 2). Several friends have told me that it could be
a relatively un-involved repair for a skilled tech, and a check with RF
Parts indicated that they have 8 matched finals for under $300, shipped.
My eyes are shot for close-up work and I'm not much of a technician anyway.
So, selling the Herc II 'as is' for parts and/or repair for the best offer
over $300, plus shipping (25 lbs from zip 72715). Cosmetics are about an
8.5 out of 10. Please reply direct, as I'm subscribed to the 'daily
summary.' As many of you are aware, the Model 420 is a sweet little amp with
auto band switching with the Omni 6 series and will do 500-600W with good
finals.
Thanks/73,
