Hewlett Packard HP 400 AC Voltmeter:

The HP-400 series is the standard for good lab quality
voltmeters with a wide frequency response (20 Hz to
4 MHz). These meters have an amplified output
terminal that can be used as a preamp for a digital
scope, a chart recorder, etc.

The HP 400 meters are all RMS reading AC voltmeters
with a large mirrored meter.

HP 400 E
This unit has ranges from 1 mv to 300 volts full scale
(-60 to +50 dbm), with a linear mirrored scale.

This one works fine, has a calibration sticker on it,
with paper work for $75.

HP 3476 A Digital Multi Meter:

The HP model 3476A is a 3½-digit instrument that
measures dc and ac volts, dc and ac current, and
resistance. It has autoranging and autopolarity
selection but it also has a range-hold function that
retains a range regardless of input changes. Note that
it measures AC currents, which many do not measure.

Full-scale ranges are to ±1000 Volts dc and ac, to 1.10
Amps dc and ac, and to 11,000 kΩ.
The frequency range for ac voltage and current
measurements is 45Hz to 5kHz.

This is a very high quality DMM. It has a calibration
sticker on it, which shows the quality of this meter.

This particular unit works as it should, and is
in very nice cosmetic condition.

Large Isolation Transformer:

This isolation transformer is large. It is 8 x 6 3/4 x
6 1/2, and has four input terminals with taps 5%
from each end. The output is center tapped, for a
total of 7 taps. It probably can be used to convert
from 120 V to 240 V, or vice versa.

Pickup near Ocala FL would be best, but it could be
shipped. $95

Large sensitive meter:

Large Simpson DC Microammeter

This is a very large 7 inch meter.
It is a 500 - 0 - 500 microammeter, still in its
original box. It has its shorting wire on it, and
the hardware has never been opened. If you
need a quality microammeter with zero center
that you can read at a distance, this is the meter.

Only $40.

M C Jones "Micro Match" MM-1:

The "Micro Match" is one of the very, very early SWR bridges,
made by M C Jones Electronics of Bristol, Conn. I would guess
the 1940's or 50's vintage.
The MM-1 is related to the more common Model 261, 262,
and 263 units. Paper work from them is included.
This unit has both SO-239 and BNC connectors on each side,
in parallel, so that either can be used. $20

5 Meter Radiotelephony by Frank Jones
1934 Copyright date with a forward by Bill Orr, W6SAI
Obviously, the fact that is is 5 meters shows the
age of the book. Equally obvious is that it is all
tubes.
Surprisingly, the condition of it is really great.
It really looks close to new, with no wear or deterioration.

Alliance U-100 Antenna Rotor Control Box:

The Alliance U-100 is typically used in VHF antennas
and is often used as an elevation rotor for satellite
antennas. It is a lighter duty rotor compared to a
Ham-M, Ham IV, or Tailtwister.

This is the control box for the rotor. No actual rotor
is available. Although it is labeled for a U-100, it
will also work with a U-110. It is a four wire control.

This one is in good cosmetic condition, and lights up fine.
The only thing that ever goes wrong in these is the motor
start capacitor. The cap in this one tests fine, and looks
like it has been replaced, being it is the new style capacitor.

Paper work included for $40.

.
I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, connectors, miscellaneous accessories,
etc.

Thanks.
