Drake Log Book and other items For Sale:
I found a NEW Drake log book in an SK estate. This is the Drake log book that has the TR-7 and related 7 line items on the cover, and on a page inside. Of course it has the log book pages that have not been used. It has been stored such that it is like new, with virtually no yellowing of the pages. As a bonus, there is a sheet inside talking about the WARC 79 bands, and how they are available on the TR-7. It also has the UV-3 on the cover and info inside. $12 Other Drake Items: Drake Low Pass TVI Filters: A low pass TVI filter is added to the transmitter to reduce harmonic interference. All have SO-239 connectors and are 50 ohm filters. Drake TV-3300-LP This modern low pass filter has been optimized to have more attenuation in the 40 MHz region, where many TVs have their IF. According to the manual it is good for 1000 Watts "average", which would be about 2000 watts PEP, and has over 80 db attenuation at 41 MHz. This one looks close to new, and also has the single page "manual" with it. $30 Drake TV-1000-LP This is the filter that may also be used on the low end of six meters, as well as HF. It is good for 1000 W below 30 MHz, and about 200 W up to 52 MHz. $30 Other related items: Communications Speakers: Vanco SPB-5 This speaker is about 4 inches square and 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. It has a 3.5 mm (1/8 inch) mono plug, as used by most modern rigs. Gimbal mount included. It is black in color, looks great, and sounds great. $12 Vanco SPB-6 Similar to SPB-5 above, but is considered a noise cancelling speaker. 10 Watt rating. Still in original box, new. $18 Realistic 21-549 A Appears to be the same as SPB-5 above, but with a Radio Shack label. Also includes gimbal mount. $12 Telex CM-1320 S Boom Mic / Headset: The CM-1320 consists of a single "over the ear" headphone, and a boom microphone. There is a PTT switch in line on the cord. With this set, you can have hands free operation, if you use VOX, or you can use the PTT switch in line. For the headphone portion, this set presently has an RCA phono plug with a mono 1/4 inch adapter (although other adapters could be used), and a round 4 pin mic plug, which can obviously be changed if desired. Wire color codes will be provided with the unit. This one works fine and looks fine. $25 Coaxial Antenna Switches: All work fine, look fine, and use SO-239 connectors. B & W Model 550 A Coax Switch This model will switch up to 5 antennas, and does NOT ground unused antennas. Coax comes out the side, like spokes of a wheel. It will handle the full legal limit. $35 SCP Comm Switch SC-40-AS Coax Switch Three position antenna switch in rectangular box. Connectors on the back. In original box. May be new. $24 Two position "Strip Line" Coax Switches: These switches utilize metal cavity construction for max efficiency and high isolation. Isolation is better than 50 dB at 300 MHz with low insertion loss less. All are two position and are typically rated for 2500 W PEP, and good to 600 MHz. Diawa CS-201 - $20 Opek CX-201 - $20 MFJ 1702 C - With center position that grounds both antennas, and added lightning protection. $25 Bird 43 Watt Meter: The Bird 43 is an insertion type RF watt meter, designed to measure RF power and load match in 50 ohm coaxial transmission lines. It is intended for use with CW, AM, FM, and TV modulation. It measures power from 100 mw to 10KW, depending on the element used. The meter provides direct readings in watts with an expanded scale for easy reading. The scale is graduated for 25, 50, and 100 full scale. Elements are available in a variety of power, and frequency ranges. This particular meter is model 4300.21 manufactured in March 1957, so it is the older, well constructed model. It has "N" connectors, with the leather handle, which is in good shape. The meter works well. $165 Coax connectors and adapters: Prices are per connector. Several of each are available.
