Heath Items For Sale - Wattmeters, Desk Mic, Phone
Patch, Speaker, Miscellaneous Parts, power supplies,
original manuals, and other miscellaneous items:

Quite a few additional original manuals have been added.


Heath AM-2 HF SWR Bridge:

This HF SWR Bridge matches the DX-40, although it can be
used with any HF transmitter. It is about 8 inches wide
and 4.5 inches high, with the meter in the middle, and a
gray colored knob at each side near the bottom. It covers
160 thru 2 meters and will handle full power.

This particular unit works fine and is in very good shape.

Paper work is included for $25.


Heath HM-2102 VHF Wattmeter /SWR Bridge:

Heath HM-2102 VHF wattmeter, covering 50 to 160 MHz.
Similar to the HM-102, but for VHF frequencies, with
250 and 25 watt scales. It can also be used to check SWR,
and has a remote sensor that can either be left inside
the meter, or separated from the actual meter by about
3 feet. SO-239 connectors in and out.
This particular meter works great, looks great, and
includes paper work for $45.


Heath HM-2141 Dual Meter VHF PEP Wattmeter / SWR Bridge:

The HM-2141 is the VHF version of the more popular
HM-2140 wattmeter and SWR Bridge, and has the same
features, except it covers from 50 to 175 MHz.

This is the wattmeter that has two meters on it, so it
reads both forward and reflected power at the same time.
It also has a "Peak" position, so it can capture the peak
power, in essence reading PEP output. Forward scales
are 30 or 300 Watts, and reverse are 10 W or 100 W,
plus SWR scale. It covers 50 to 175 MHz, and also has
a battery test position (9 volt battery needed for "peak"
operation). It has a remote sensor with about 3 feet
of cable.

This particular meter works 100%.  The outer case (top
and sides) has been repainted black hammertone, and looks
very nice.

With paper work for $90.


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


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?


Communications Speaker:

Realistic 21-549 A
This one is about 4 inches square but only about 2 inches
deep. It is rated for 5 watts, has an 8 ohm impedance, and
is listed as a 300 to 3000 Hz frequency response, making it
ideal for communications. 3.5 mm (1/8 inch) mono plug. It
is black in color, looks great, and sounds great. $18

Vanco SPB-5
Appears to be the same at above, but with a Vanco label.
Also includes gimbal mount. $15


Coaxial Lightning Arrestor:

This lightning arrestor is made to be inserted in to
your coaxial feedline, to help reduce lightning damage.

Cushcraft LAC-1
No markings on this to confirm the model number, but it
looks like the Cushcraft "Blitz Bug".
It has an SO-239 on one end and a PL-259 on the other end
(female UHF on one end and male on the other).
Simply unscrew the PL-259 on your coax, insert this
lightning arrestor, and you are all set. $10


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?


"Wall Wart" Power Supplies:

All of these are "regular" wall warts - not the new
switching type that create all sort of noise in your
receiver. Use one of these, and leave the noise behind.

Heathkit "Converter / Charger"
9 Volts DC at 100 ma.
No Heath number on this, and I don't know what it was used
on originally. It can be used either as a 9 Volt DC "power
pack" or as a charger. It has a 2.5 mm male plug on it, with
the tip positive, so it can be used on many devices. $10

9 Volt DC at 500 ma
This one was used on a MFJ 422 keyer, but will also power
other items needing 9 V DC at low current. It has a
2.5 mm male plug on it, tip positive. $12

AEA AC-1
This unit supplies 12 V DC at up to 1 amp.
It has a 2.1 mm coaxial power plug, with the center
positive, so it can be used on many different things
that require about 12 V DC at up to an amp. $14


Power Supplies:

Radio Shack 22-124 Regulated Power Supply

This supply is regulated and will furnish 13 V DC at up
to 2.5 amps. It is ideal for the lower powered 2 meter
rigs, or to get rid of that huge collection of wall warts.

This one works fine and looks extremely nice.
I do not find a scratch on it. $20


Surge Station and Noise Filter:

This unit is still in its Radio Shack (#61-2327) box, never
used. It says it is for a notebook computer, but it can be
used with anything. It has connections for a computer network
(LAN, RJ-45 connector), the AC power, and for phone lines
(RJ-11 connector), and provides noise filtering and surge
suppression on each. It even includes $25,000 insurance
against surges. Maximum power rating is 1875 Watts, or 15
amps. Noise filtering is listed at 40 db.

This unit is new, in its original box, with its original
paper work. $20
