[TenTec] Corsair II Fair Price?

[Jim M.]

Thanks to all for the responses.  I forgot to mention this one has the CW
filter (500 Hz I believe). I understand the PTOs have been a problem but
this one seems surprisingly stable.  I bought a PTO rebuild kit from TT
thinking I would do it, but it doesn't seem to need it and I just don't have
the time.  I got it from a neighbors yard sale, he's no longer into ham
radio.  It really is a neat little radio but I have too many now.  So I
guess it (and Mic, Spkr/PS) will have to go some day.

Typ. filter prices seem to be $60 to $70 each; power supply $125 to $140;
rig maybe $400

Stability of the PTO can be a big factor in price, since unstable / drify
PTO can indicate a PTO rebuild is needed (kit $30 or so, plus time/effort to
rebuild.  Not sure what Ten-Tec charges now but it's not a technically
difficult thing for owner to do... just takes time)

Jim's note on the Corsair II price reminds me I've got a spare one sitting
here to sell:

Corsair II (model 561) in beautiful condition, no PTO rebuild needed, no
scratchy potentiometers, needs nothing.

$390 plus shipping at actual cost.

Filters available.
