To make room for several new projects, I am  reluctantly offering a late
date,  collector quality, vintage Drake component package including a
Drake TR4C (serial # 41,146) transceiver, an AC4 power supply (serial
#50,100) and a customized, "supercharged" and retrofitted Drake  L4B/8877
amplifier(serial # 2561). There are no bangs, dents, dings, abrasions,
rust, cigarette smoke, etc. on any of the   components. The 4 piece 
package consists of:

a. A  Drake TR4C full output transceiver (no blanker) w/ 3/16"  new
straight microphone plug. 
b. Near perfect companion AC4 power supply (currently wired for
110/115vac)
c. 2200W output Drake L4B  RF deck retrofitted with a full output Eimac
3CX1500A7/8877.  The RF deck  appears outwardly  OEM Drake with all
controls functional (AGC disabled).  All pertinent modifications are
internal (HV choke, filament transformer, HD antenna  relay, biasing,
filament voltage pin outs, etc.) to accommodate the high power output. 
d. a small footprint, remote, fully metered,Hipersil, step start, solid
state rectifier , time delay, and fan cooled supply  has a rating of
4000VDC@ 1 amp+.  Power supply system is wired for 220/230VAC ONLY! 
For pertinent digitals, visit http://briefcase.yahoo.com/W2CQMron and
view the various discussions and annotated digitals  related to this
project. Specifically to this offering, click on <Drake TR4 Transceiver>
for the  four (4) digitals. $1700+  FedEx shipping/insurance  for the
complete package (from zip 18426).  Ron W2CQM/3


**In addition to this package, there is a second, almost identical
L4B/8877 retrofitted amplifier, however, only the above captioned
package/power supply  can be safely shipped since the plate Peter Dahl
transformer can be easily removed and shipped separately. Pickup can be
arranged for the New York City, Scranton, PA, or Northern New Jersey
areas.  Second pick up amplifier $1300+ shipping.
