You might want to contact "handi hams" and see if they can use it. I know that there is a need for that type of gear.

For Sale:

TenTec 299 Voice synthesized frequency read out

This unit is used with the TenTec Omni 546 series A, B, C,
some Argonauts, Corsair, and others.  It will work with
other rigs (such as the Triton), with minor mods to get
the right connections.

The 299 is used primarily for blind hams who can not read the
frequency readout on the transceiver.  By pushing a button, it
will "speak" the frequency (to tenth of a KHz).  A front panel
switch permits selection of the entire frequency, or you can
eliminate the MHz, and give only the KHz.  There is also a
volume control on the front panel.

Of course it can also be used to give a "voice digital readout"
to any rig with an analog dial, or used as a normal frequency
counter.

This particular unit is in great shape electrically.  Cosmetically
it looks very nice, but has some very minor wear.

$ 190 plus shipping from Florida.

Thanks.

73,

Ken, W8EK
