I paid 485.00, 7 months ago, a nice clean and fully operating rig. Most the
6n2's I looked at were 475-550.00 .
thanks

Subject: [TenTec] 526 AKA "6N2" value?
Greetings all,
In the process of conversation with a local ham friend he mentioned that
another local ham was considering putting up a 6M beacon. I became involved
as a "resource person" on a couple of peripheral issues, but to make a long
story short apparently the "beaconer" in question has a 526 that he's had
sitting around for a while and was considering using it for the beacon TX. My
reaction was that from what I understand 526s are in demand and holding their
price fairly well. I've suggested that if the 526 were put on the market it
would probably bring enough to finance most if not all of the project. Then
the "beaconer" could pick up a cheap older 6M rig or a surplus commercial TX
that would be better suited for that particular application. (I guess i just
view dedicating a 526 to beacon service to be somewhat of a waste....)
So, what's a 526 in nice/decent shape worth ("ballpark")? Comments on my take
on the situation?
TNX/73, Al
