Hello All,

Still slimming down!  Here's another list of items that I'd like to 
dispose of.  It's probably not the last list, but getting close.  Will 
listen to offers.  Will send pictures.  On the air testing ok.


1.  Drake L7 Amplifier with Power Supply - $800

Purchased by me in 1984.  I used it until 1999 but not since then except 
a couple of times to test it.  In 2014, John AC8E helped me rebuild the 
power supply with the W8CQ L7 Replacement Power Supply Module.  After 
that, the amp worked as expected. Since then it's been stored in the 
closet of my second story shack (ie a dry place).  Presently set up for 
120 Volt use but it can and should be changed to operate with 240 volts 
(easy to do).  Keep in mind that this amp does not operate on 10 Meters, 
but there is a way to modify it.  Cosmetically very good.  Original 
manual and box for the power supply.  I've had some CW QSOs recently and 
it seems to be working fine.  If you buy it and have problems within the 
first couple of weeks, I'll refund your $$.


2.  Nye-Viking Kilowatt Antenna Tuner $150

Bought for $450 in 1985.  Pristine condition and works fine except that 
the built-in power and SWR meters don't work.  Getting at the boards is 
a PITA so I never tried to fix.  Cosmetically excellent.  Original 
manual and carton.  This thing has one humongous variable capacitor 
inside.  Will handle over 3,000 watts (according to the manual).


3.  Yaesu FT-757GXII Mobile HF Radio - $300

I bought this around 1987 to operate in the mobile category in the PAQSO 
Party and used it for that and similar mobile events for about 20 
years.  Little used since 2004 or so.  Recently tested on all bands CW 
and SSB and works fine.  Includes mic, amp switch box, original manual 
and carton.


4.  Viking Ranger - FREE!

Sort of works but a recent on the air test indicated a rough AC tone.  
Probably needs new caps.  Vikey  says:  "Save me from the landfill"


5.  Bear Bow & Arrow Set - $50

Get those wires high in the tree!  60" Fred Bear bow with 12 red arrows 
and string tracker device that attaches to bow.  Archery glove included.


6.  32' Fiberglass Telescoping Mast - $40

Brand new, never been used.  I think it's from The Mast Company. Dark 
Green color, collapses to less than 4', comes in plastic case.


K8MR can deliver- to the K3LR summer picnic this weekend if necessary.  
Thanks, Jim!
