Coaxial Antenna Relay, Coax Switch, Microphones, TVI Filters FS

Coaxial Antenna Relay and Antenna switch For Sale:

B & W 377 Coaxial Antenna Relay

I had never seen one of these before.  Most of us are familiar
with the Dow Key Antenna relays that many of us used 40 or 50
years ago.  This unit serves the same function, but is somewhat
unique.  It is also NOS.

The B & W 377 is housed in a hexagon box, that I assume is the
same as the box some of the B & W coax switches used.  It has
three SO-239 connectors coming out three of the sides, a length
of wire on one side that goes to the coil of the relay, and two
sides that are blank.

The coil is rated to work on 48 to 130 volts AC, at 15 ma.  The
original single page instruction sheet says that it is a unique
relay design permitting this large variation in voltage.  It also
says it is good to 150 MHz, and will handle 2000 Watts PEP, or
1000 watts continuous.

It appears that this unit has never been used.  It has the original
instruction sheet, and original box.  The box has the tab partially
torn, but considering the age, is in nice shape.  The unit itself
does not appear to have been used, and looks perfect.  $75

This coax switch has SO-239 connectors arranged so the coax comes

also.  With mounting bracket and paper work for $35.

Low Pass TVI Filters:

A low pass TVI filter is added to the transmitter (inserted
in the coax line after the transmitter or transceiver) to
reduce harmonic interference.

Bencher YA-1, high power, low pass TVI filter
If you need a more heavy duty filter for the output of
your amplifier, this one is ideal. It will take full legal
power plus, and has at least 80 db signal attenuation at
TV channel 2.
It is also in a very sturdy metal case with SO-239 connectors
on each end, and is a 50 ohm filter.
This one works great, and looks close to new. Someone added
some felt to the bottom, so that it protects better. It is in
its original box, with paper work. Bencher currently sells
these for about $90. This one is only $65.

in the 40 MHz region, where many TVs have their IF. It is good
for 1000 Watts "average" according to the manual, and has
over 80 db attenuation at 41 MHz. This one looks great, and
includes the paper work. $30
