Full Power Antenna Tuner, HF Transceiver, Power Supply,
Desk Microphone, and Coaxial Antenna Switch, For Sale:


TenTec 229 antenna tuner

This tuner will handle full legal power, and features a
roller inductor, so you can get an exact match.  It uses
an "L" match instead of a "T" match, which means there is
only one spot that will give you the correct match.  With
the "T" match, one can get a match at several different
points, but only one of these points is the correct one.
The "L" match is also more efficient.  Electrically, it
is the same as the 238, 238 A, 238 B, 238 C, 229 A, 229 B,
and the 4229 kit.

There is also a built in wattmeter with full scale reading
of 200 and 2000 watts.  It also has an SWR bridge with
lighted meter, plus a 4 position antenna switch.

It can be used on any HF frequency, including the WARC
bands, since it is continuously adjustable.  It includes
a built in internal balun, so open wire can be used,
if desired.

Cosmetically, this unit is the color of the earlier Omni
series (Omni 546, series A, B, and C) with the black vinyl
covering, and nice aluminum trim around the front.

This particular unit functions 100%, and looks perfect.
I can not find a scratch on it.

Paper work is included for $325.


TenTec 585 Paragon HF Transceiver:

The Paragon is a top of the line transceiver that includes a
general coverage receiver. It covers 160-10 meters, including
WARC bands, with 100 watts output. The receiver is fantastic.
It has dual VFOs and many memories built in, along with a
speech processor. Basically, it has about every feature that
a ham could want in an HF rig.

This particular unit works 100% as best I can tell. Since the
rig does so many things, I am sure that there is something I
didn't test, but I don't know what it is (or I would have
tested it!). It has had all updates completed by TenTec.

Cosmetically, it is in extremely nice shape. The front panel
is extremely good. Most all of the lettering is clean and
crisp. This one is in exceptional condition. It also has the
Giehl chip in it making it similar to a Paragon II.

Large manual and power cord included for $650.


TenTec Power Supply:

"Switcher / 25" 25 amp switching power supply:
This is a 25 amp switching power supply in a case that
matches the early Omni series case, with the metal bezel
around it. It is in a case that is the same size as a 243
remote VFO. It has an ammeter on the front, along with
Switch, TenTec logo, and output bulb. The front panel
basically looks like a 280 power supply with a metal bezel,
but says "Switcher/25" on it. It is very quiet, and well
shielded, and does not produce any electrical noise that
I could find. $175


TenTec 705 desk microphone:

The Ten-Tec Model 705 is an Electret desk microphone. The
microphone consists of a base section and flexible gooseneck
mounted microphone. The Model 705 incorporates a momentary
type Push-To-Talk (PTT) button (gray), a Push-On, Push-Off
locking type button (black), electronic circuitry to switch
the microphone on, a signal amplifier that adds 13 dB of
gain to the output level, an attached output cable and a
battery compartment for a 9 volt alkaline battery. The PTT
circuitry allows switching transmitters and/or transceivers,
that have a low voltage positive T/R lines, into transmit
mode. A light emitting diode in the base signals the
transmit mode.

This one works great, and looks close to new.
With paper work for $75.


Coaxial antenna switch:

B & W CSR-5 G "Protax" (Formerly known as Model 376)
This is a five position antenna switch with the six SO-239
connectors coming out of the switch like the spokes of a
wheel.  Unused connections are grounded.
This switch is in its original box, with paper work, and
appears unused.  These go for about $75 new.  Buy this
one for only $55.


I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, dual band HTs, VHF and
UHF rigs (both dual band and 2 meter), HF and VHF/UHF
antennas, etc. Just too many to list here.
Please e-mail your requests.

Prices do not include shipping from Florida.

Thanks.
