[TenTec] Ten-Tec 229A Tuner Value

[Clayton Brantley]

Gary:  The mod is here:    http://n6ie.com/Ten_Tec_238.html
I did get the dial cord kit from TenTec and have one left over.  Don't remember the cost, but can look it up.

Clayton,

Is there a written mod somewhere about replacing the caps and which ones?  Also, did you get the dial cord from Ten-Tec?  My elastic dial cord has seen better days too.

I bought one at the last TenTec fest for $180.  Did the upgrade to replace the .01 disk capswith doorknobs and had to buy a dial cord.  I also replace the #47 dial lamps with LEDs.I would ask $225 this one if I wanted to sell it.  That thing is the same as the 238 but in adifferent cabinet.  It will tune a flag pole or anything else you can hook it to.

I picked up a very nice Ten-Tec 229A tuner in a trade.  I was just wondering what its value might be.

 

Thanks and 73,
