Hi All,
Here are two more Elecraft radios from the estate of John McClain, K7SVV.
First is a very nice 4 band K1. This one is set up for 40, 30, 20, and 17
meters. Also comes with the internal ATU, backlight option, and the wide
range tilt stand. I checked it out on the air, and everything works FB.
New this would be around $700, and asking $390 plus shipping. I have one of
these myself, and it has been one of my favorite Field Day radios on many
occasions. A very good design, and well built by John.
The other radio is a KX1. This is also a 4 band version, and covers 80, 40,
30, and 20. I worked several stations on it this morning, and it seems to
work well. The RX seems even better than the one I have, but the TX puts
out a bit less than mine does--around 2.5 watts on this one. I know John
built this, and then didn't do much with it. There are some tricks and
tweaks to boost the power a bit, but apparently he didn't bother. To be
honest with you, John wasn't that big on CW, but loved building these
radios. Anyway, it's very clean, well built, and comes with the internal
ATU and the KXPD1 paddle. That's just under $600 new, and will sell for
$325 plus shipping. This is a great portable rig, particularly with the ATU
option built in. It's nearly shirt pocket size, and even has some wide band
RX capability. It's CW only, of course, but you can switch it on RX for
either LSB or USB. Has a built in variable filter that goes from .5 to 2.0.
Very cool radio!
Contact me if interested.
