At age 76, I don't get out to portable locations any more and this is totally surplus to my needs. I bought this MTR5B "MountainTopper" new from LNR Precision ($400) a couple years ago. Used it when I went to visit my sisters & neices in Florida and Louisiana with excellent results.

I did add the optional tuning encoder (I grew up turning knobs for tuning rather than Up/Down button pushing). Also included in the package will be an MFJ 9201 "QRPocket Tuner" which will actually handle 100 watts when tuned at lower power. Original power cable with added "Deans Connector" + matching Deans female as well as a package of spare power connectors to fit the MTR5B.

Main power cable has 2 series Schottky diodes in series with the + side to drop a 13.8V power supply to just under 12 V which is the stated max input voltage for the MTR5B.

Rig puts out just under 5 watts on 11.9 volts and cosmetically it's a 9 out of 10. It has some scratches around one sides mounting screw hole that happened when I drilled the hole for the encoder. The good news is, Ihave a brand new case for it, still in the box which will be included.

The manual is downloadable from LNR Precision's website but I have the original one which has the schematic in it. The one on LNR's website is very abbreviated. A printed copy of the original will be included.

Asking $325 Shipped in the US for everything.

Anyone interested please contact me off list, ([email protected]) for pictures, to say "I'll Take It" or for further information. Payment by USPS Money Order or Pay Pal would be preferred.
