I am selling my remaining analog Ten-Tec stations this week. This sale is for the Hercules 444 that I have used with those stations. Cosmetically this amplifier is designed to mate with the earlier Omni series (Omni A, D, B, and C) but works great with the Corsair and Corsair II as well.

The Hercules 444 incorporates a fairly unique QSK keying design so it is best used with the earlier Omni series (up to the 'C' model) where it will even band switch with the transceiver or with the Corsair/Corsair II if you manually band switch. This amplifier easily puts out approximately 600 watts and operates on 160, 80, 40, 20, 15, and 10-meters. It is a fully solid state, instant on, QSK HF amplifier. The amplifier works properly including all automatic safeguard circuits. The lighted rocker switches are original and illuminate. The meter backlights work too.I've seen more than a few of these amplifiers and this is the nicest I've encountered, easily an 8.5 or 9 of 10). Includes the matching external 50volt power supply (good condition).

I haven't set a price as yet other than a 'don't bother below this minimum' so I will be entertaining offers for the next few days.. If the offers are too low I'll sell this amplifier/power supply by popular auction site in a few days.

Item 3

Ten-Tec Hercules 444 HF amplifier with matching power supply
Original manuals

No offers below $600 plus shipping will be considered. Pick up would be advisable do to size and weight of external power supply.

(see other listing for Omni-C  and Corsair II stations)
