Ok ok....Corair 1 it is.
In 1982 (I think) I saved up some money and bought a new FT-757. Brought it home and within minutes I hated it. Took it back to R&L and traded it in on a Corsair. I was happy with that rig for 5 years. QSK is awesome on these things. I ended up giving it to a missionary in Haiti whose Drake gear succumbed to jungle rot. He used the Corsair for another 5 years until it met the same fate. No, this isn't the same one!

Well, there wasn't a World War I until there was a World War II. Sort of a
retroactive renaming?

Ok guys. I've had my fun and now for something else. This Corsair came to me ragged, dirty and out of wack. I spent many hours on it. Now the PTO is as smooth as silk. The oscillators are aligned (600hz offset). Front panel and every knob cleaned and waxed. Sidetone modified for a beautiful sounding sine wave and everything checks out (easily reversible if you like sawthooth waves). All it needs now is a good home. It's got the 500hz cw filter and matching power supply (260). Everything you need for super QSK CW 160m through 10m including all warc bands. SSB probably works too but I didn't even bother finding out! As for physical condition: The front panel is scratch free and clean. The top has scratches on it and the rest of the rig and power supply is excellent. Only the top lid shows wear but still, it's clean, glossy and ready for action. Put this baby on the air for only $399.00.

Included is:

Corsair 560. Serial 00748
260 power supply
500hz filter
No manual, sorry.
Will not be DOA. Money back if not happy but you pay all shipping. Zip
