Millen 90651 Grid Dip Meter For Sale:
This grid dip meter really is a GRID dip meter, as it
uses a vacuum tube instead of one of the newer solid
state devices. Most people think the actual grid dip
meter with a tube works better than the newer meters.
This meter has a set of six coils with it, covering
from 1.7 to 150 MHz. The seventh coil, really just
a single turn of heavy wire covering 140 to 300 MHz.,
is missing. All of these coils are in a very nice
black crinkle metal storage rack. Just the coil set
in the rack sold for $110 on e-bay.
I brought this unit up slowly on a variac, and all seems
to be fine. The AC power cord could stand replacing, but
I left it as it was. Cosmetically, there are a couple
of paint chips off -- enough to tell that the chassis is
made of copper.
This is really a piece of history, but it also works.
With manual, and set of six coils in the rack for
$120 plus shipping from Florida.
I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, HF, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, etc.
Just too many to list here. Please e-mail your requests.
Thanks.
73,
