Hello All,

(links fixed from the earlier email)

This is from the same estate as the Heathkit antenna tuner sold recently.

Unit is quite clean considering its age.  Here is a link to pictures:  https://photos.app.goo.gl/moL8vgX7HBKCYd5G7

I powered it up slowly using a Variac and there are a few pictures of the front panel showing the status.  The 'delay' indicator for the exciter did light up, but then turned off just before I took the picture.  The needle on the scale did not go anywhere until the selector was moved to the 'HV' position.  No further testing has been done as I do not have the expertise (or a license).  As the meter is just under 2kV for the HV, I would prefer not to poke around inside to check any voltages anyway.

A Heathkit SB-230 was recently sold on eBay for $480 (r<https://www.ebay.com/itm/HEATHKIT-SB-230-LINEAR-AMPLIFIER-Includes-Manuals-on-CD-For-Parts-or-Repair-/323803605996?hash=item4b6432ebec%3Ag%3AdHcAAOSwGLZc1iFj&nma=true&si=lenQtd2XL53gMLh639g%252FOzFHHfU%253D&orig_cvip=true&nordt=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557>eference eBay item number 323803605996 sold on 17 May, 20 bids, price includes the shipping charge).  https://www.ebay.com/itm/HEATHKIT-SB-230-LINEAR-AMPLIFIER-Includes-Manuals-on-CD-For-Parts-or-Repair/323803605996?hash=item4b6432ebec:g:dHcAAOSwGLZc1iFj

My asking price is $300 (firm), including packing and shipping from Zip Code 55076, to CONUS addresses only.   PayPal to w_b_morton at hotmail.com is preferred.  If no interest after a few days, I will list it on eBay.

I do have a few other pieces from the estate (not yet inventoried) and I will list them over the coming days/weeks.  I am not looking to get rich off these pieces, but I would rather have them find a good home at a (hopefully) reasonable price.

Thanks for looking.

Best Regards,

William
