Heath Items For Sale -  SWR Bridge, Keyer,
Phone Patch, Desk Mic, Miscellaneous Parts,
original manuals, Dummy Load, Coaxial Cable
and Connectors, and other miscellaneous items:


Heath HM-15 SWR Bridge:
It is an HF SWR Bridge, with SO-239 connectors on the back.
The front has the meter on the left, and two knobs to the
right. It is the same size as the HD-15 phone patch. This
one works fine and is in nice cosmetic shape. I can not
find a scratch on it. Paper work included for $20.


Heath HD-1410 Electronic CW Keyer:

This keyer is made to match the Heath SB line of transmitters
and transceivers, although it will work well with almost any
rig made. It is an Iambic keyer, with built in paddles,
although I will be the first to tell you that the paddles
on the 1410 are not near as nice as Bencher paddles, or
any number of other external paddles. A sidetone oscillator
is included, along with a headphone jack. It is all solid
state, and also has a weight in the bottom of the cabinet
to keep it from walking around on the operating desk. It
also has a "hold" control on the front panel, to aid in
giving a solid "key down" to tune an antenna tuner. It
operates on 115 V AC or from 10 to 14.5 volts DC. It will
key either positive or negative voltage rigs.

This particular unit works fine, and looks very nice.
I can not find a scratch on it.

Paper work is included for $50.


Heath HD-15 phone patch / digital interface:

This unit can be used to interface a sound card in a
PC to your transceiver. It was originally designed to
be used as a phone patch, but many have converted them
to a digital interface.

This is the unit with the VU meter on the left and 3 knobs
that match the SB series to the middle and right. Low or
high Z output to the transmitter. The meter makes it great
for setting levels.

This one is all original. It is in great condition.
Paper work included for $22.

I also have parts from a Heath HD-15 phone patch available.
This includes an audio transformer used for digital
interfacing, VU meter, and other parts. Outer cover and
knobs are gone. What do you need?


Deluxe Desk Microphone:

This is a great looking and great performing low impedance
desk mic. It has a quality Shure 600 ohm cartridge in it
(the cartridge alone is over $40 new), with a very nice
black die case base and neck, with a chrome grill. It
looks somewhat like a Shure 444, but no plastic on this
one -- all metal!

This one has stripped and tinned ends on it, which means
any connector can easily be added.

This one looks like new, and works the same. It has a
long (approx 6 foot) cord. $70


Miscellaneous Heath Parts:

I have many Heath SB-630 Station Console parts available.
Most of the internal parts are available, but no clock.
Front panel and outer case are gone, but reflectometer
assembly, switches, etc. are still available.
Please let me know what you need.

I also have parts from a Heath HD-15 phone patch available.
This includes an audio transformer used for digital
interfacing, VU meter, and other parts.
What do you need?

Dentron "Big Dummy" RF Dummy Load:

This is Dentron's equivalent to the the traditional Heath
"Cantenna" dummy load that will handle a kilowatt. It has
a derating curve with it.

It is in good shape both electrically and cosmetically.
It has no rust, dents nor dings.

I measured the resistor and it is 53 ohms, so obviously it
is in good shape. I have never seen any others this close
to 52 ohms!

I can ship it either with or without oil. The cost to
purchase is the same, but of course the shipping will be
higher with the oil.

With derating curve and paper work for $45.


Coaxial Cable:

I accumulated a fairly large amount of miscellaneous
lengths of coaxial cable. Most of the cable is RG-8
(.405 inches in diameter) or equivalent. Most has a
PL-259 on at least one end, and most on both ends.

All of the coax over 20 feet has been checked with an
analyzer, and its loss has been confirmed to be within
10% of new specs which is as close as I can measure.
Lengths under 20 feet have been checked for continuity,
because loss is almost impossible to measure for lengths
this short.

I have a large amount in many different lengths, varying
from 1 foot to 160 feet. To put it another way, I have
jumpers for in your shack, and lengths to run up your
tower. I can not list all of the lengths. Please let
me know what you need, and I will see how close I can come.

The coax is 3 feet for a dollar (33 cents a foot), plus
$2 for each installed PL-259.

Most are unused.

UHF Right angle 90 degree elbow connector $3

UHF double female "Barrel connector" (two SO-239 together) $3

mounting thru a window, siding, etc. about 3 inches long $6

UHF double male connector (two PL-259's together) $3

UHF "T" connector with two female (SO-239) and one male
(PL-259) connection $5

Antenna adapter to fit the BNC connector on the HT
and provide an SO-239 connector that will permit
a PL-259 to be attached. (BNC male to UHF female) $5

UHF Male to BNC female (opposite of above) $5

Just too many to list here. Please e-mail your requests.

Prices do not include shipping from Florida.

Thanks.
