[TenTec] Low-pass filter?

[Ken Simpson, W8EK]

If anyone needs a Drake TV-5200 LPF, I have one available.

Drake TV-5200-LP Low Pass Filter
This is the more modern version of the Drake TV-1000 Low Pass
Filter. This is the filter that may also be used on the low
end of six meters, as well as HF. It is good for 1000 Watts
average below 30 MHz, and about 200 W up to 52 MHz. It works
fine, and is in very nice shape. $35 plus shipping from Florida.

Thanks.

73,

Ken, W8EK
