Hi Barrie: Have the choke, found it this afternoon. The rig is in a 6 ft. cabinet by 37" and 29" deep. According to the manual the "export weight" is 1400 lbs., but that includes crating. I don't have the exact weight of the transmitter, but would guess between 1000 and 1200 lbs.
The transmitter is very clean and I could take some pictures for you if you are interested. According to the engineer who maintained it, the tubes have about 50 hours operating time. The transmitter is located in Casper, WY and has all it cabinet pieces. Just remove the transformers, chokes and such and it will be fairly easy to move and load. Asking 1500 for it. Let me know 73 Jim de W5JO ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barrie Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2003 7:10 PM Subject: Re: [AMRadio] Broadcast Transmitters > Jim: > > Depending upon price, weight and finding the choke, I could be interested in > the Gates. > > 73, Barrie, W7ALW, Missoula, Montana > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Tommye & Jim Wilhite <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: AM Radio Discussion List <[email protected]> > Sent: Wednesday, April 09, 2003 3:08 PM > Subject: [AMRadio] Broadcast Transmitters > > > Good afternoon all: > > Does anyone on this list have an interest in the following: > > 1 Gates BC1-T 2-833x by 2-833s. 1KW/250W out.
