To All- Hi! I just thought I would let everyone know that this past week, I purchased a complete AM transmitter/receiver station w/accessories! It is very similar to the one I had in New Jersey as WA2CXS in my senior year of high school 1968. I purchased a partially restored (LV-HV filters, screen bias resistor) Johnson Viking II with matching external VFO just off the air and working. Also the receiver is a National NC-109 (I had a NC-300 in 1968 strictly ham bands). The accessories include a Hallicrafters HA-1 keyer, D-104 Astatic unamplified mike, and a TR homebrew switch. All for $200.00 cash!!! Needless to say I am ecstatic on getting back on HF AM after all these years with my near exact second ham radio station. My first one as a Novice WN2CXS was a Heathkit DX-60B transmitter and Lafayette HA-63 general coverage receiver September, 1967.
I am picking up these electronic treasures Friday and brining them home. I next need to string up my G5RV antenna and setup my operating table. See you on the HF AM frequencies, especially 75 and 40 meters, soon. Best 73's, Bob K5SEP Kilowatt Five Sporadic E Propagation
