I have for sale an SSB Electronics SP-2000 Superamp mast-mounted GaAsFET
preamp, 1 1/2 years old. Rated at 200w VOX, 750w PTT. It has Hi-Q helical coils
& helical filters and is one of the best preamps for DXing, satellites, meteor
scatter, and EME. More info at:

The preamp works OK, but for some unknown reason it is rusty. The preamp is
contained in a weatherproof case but water must have gotten in somehow. I
cleaned up the circuit board with Q-tips and alcohol. Photos available.
The SP-2000 sells new for $310 plus shipping. You can have this one for $150
shipped anywhere USA. Also would offer the SP-2000 plus cash for a 2m preamp
system capable of handling 1.5 kw. I recently bought a Lunar Link and
discovered the rust issue when I took the preamp down.
