FS Elmac A-54-H AM Transmitter. The Elmac A54H is a(AM) plate modulated mobile transmitter manufactured in the early 1950's. They were VFO or crystal controlled and covered five bands, four fixed and one assignable. The fixed bands were 75, 20, 11, and 10 meters. Ham had the 11 meter assignment in the early 50's. The assignable or "X" position on the band switch could be field modified to any one of 160, 40, 15, or 6 meters. The final tube is an 807 with push-pull 6L6 modulators. The A54 ran on nominally 500V at about 200 milliamps and a filament voltage of 6.3 or 12.6 volts. It was a simple but rugged design and in good shape and properly aligned these transmitters give excellent results. The A54H has a 6AU6 microphone pre-amp for use with a high impedance crystal or dynamic microphone. This one comes with the original manual, no power supply. It is in fair to good condition cosmetically and in untested. Pictures available. I am asking $125 plus shipping. Thanks, Charlie Hugg, K5MBX
