FS TenTec PM3A Power-Mite QRP transceiver. Super clean and working perfectly
this 20/40meter QRP rig from TenTecs original product line. The FIRST
transceivers offered from Ten-Tec during the late 1960's-early 1970's. PM3A
is the same as PM3 with the addition of the AC7 board for semi QSK break in
keying. The PM3A was the last of the series hitting the market in the fall
of 70. It covered 2 bands, 40 and 20 meters with 5 watts output. The
receiver is direct conversion. Changing bands involved flipping 3 individual
band switches and retuning....Yes you dip and load just like a tube rig! A
copy of the instruction sheets are included as well as ear phone plugs,
power cord, and antenna adaptor with RCA plug on one end and a SO239 plug on
the other end. Also included is an ear phone adaptor that plugs in the
original front pins and has a transformer and modern audio plug for use with
current ear plugs. I am offering this super collector's item for $150 plus
shipping. Pictures available. Thanks, Charlie Hugg, K5MBX
