[VHFcontesting] The HP/CPQ 51V power supplies....

[Marshall-K5QE]

Hello everyone....I still have a small stack of the HP/CPQ 51.4VDC power 
supplies.  These are the ones that put out 57A and require 240VAC for 
input.  A comparable power supply by MeanWell costs over $500.  They are 
perfect for all the new power MOSFET amplifiers, such as the M2 6M-1000 
and 2M-1K2 amps. Jim Klitzing has some amazing amps that use 50V for the 
B+. Ameritron has a new HF amplifier that also requires 50V(nominal) for 
the B+.  In the future, there will be a lot more of these type 
amplifiers running around.

The price of the power supplies is $35 which is a really good deal.  
Adding shipping just increases the cost .......  Also, me finding boxes 
to cut down and packaging these things up is a pain in the tail for me, 
so I really don't want to ship these things.

I am driving to the 6M International BBQ in Austin next weekend--Sept 21 
and 22.  I am delivering a few of the power supplies there. I have about 
25 of these things that I need to move out to deserving new owners. I 
shipped 4 of them out today to UT and the shipping charges were $71!!!!  
That is why I really don't want to have to ship these things.  SO, if 
you want some of these power supplies before they run out and if you 
have a friend attending the BBQ, PLEASE have him pick them up for you to 
avoid the shipping expenses.

Please contact me off the reflector so that I can earmark whatever power 
supplies you might want as sold.  Also, I need to know how many to bring 
to Austin.  I don't want to drag 20 of these supplies over there and 
bring them all back.....
