*I am ready to order the second batch of 5 Miniature Gamma Research Power
Supplies

Please let me know if you are still interested

Price with shipping to San Diego is $154.79
( $162.49 if shipped outside of San Diego area - see note below *** )

They are normally $169 + $11 S&H = $180, if order individually .

Below is the original blurb I sent out to refresh your memory

Unfortunately 1 ham dropped his order so I have to drum up
one more taker to order next batch of 5

Please confirm if still interested at price above


This is a neat supply and great for taking on trips and Dx-peditions
with a small 100 Watt HF Transceiver
**If anyone is interested in a group buy, let me know and I will see
what we can drive the price down to !*

This claim from the web site

*****The HPS-1a is guaranteed to operate your 12 volt radio at up to 100
Watts output using Morse CW or Voice SSB.
You have to see it to believe it. It will power your radio continuously for
normal QSOs...
in fact, you can contest with it!

Your radio uses power only 35% of the time when transmitting CW, and about
25% during normal Voice SSB operation.
The Gamma HPS-1a provides full power capability by the use of
Ultra-Capacitors which act like short term batteries.
 Between spoken syllables and between Morse code characters, the
Ultra-Capacitors are being recharged,
ready for the next high current pulse requirement. This allows the total
weight and size of the power supply
 to be reduced to 1/3 that of any other power supply on the market.
And it operates equally well on input voltages between 100 and 250 VAC, 50
or 60 Hz. *

* The Regular non discounted Single Unit price for this Pwr Sply is $169 +
$11 S&H.
Lets see what ordering 10 - 20 or MORE units will do to drive price down !
**( We should also save on multiple unit shipping to San Diego ***) *
*
I just did some measurements and it appears that this Power Supply
will just fit into a small Priority Mail Flat Rate box,
***so I could send units from San Diego to anyone in U.S. for $4.95 + $2.75
Insurance = $7.70 Shipping !

**Please forward this to any other hams you know that may be interested*

( I am not making 1 stinking peso if we do a group buy ! )
