Solid state rigs, especially those from Asia is difficult if not impossible to fix when it breaks. You will nearly always be able to find parts for tube rigs. Keep the TR-4C as a spare if nothing else. 73, John, W4AWM -----Original Message----- From: Philip Grocki <psgro...@sbcglobal.net> To: drakelist <drakelist@zerobeat.net> Sent: Tue, Feb 10, 2015 1:32 pm Subject: [Drakelist] Drake TR-4C rig for sale.
Members: In order for me to enter the solid-state ham radio world I need to sell some of my coveted Drake equipment to folk who appreciates vintage Drake quality and its history. For sale is a Drake TR-4C transceiver, serial #36799 (with full set of 10-meter crystals), accompanying AC-4 power supply, MS-4 speaker, and Drake 729SR microphone. No noise blanker installed. I purchase all three units in 2008 from Ron Baker (WB4HFN). Ron fully re-furbished the TR-4C and re-painted its case. All units are currently in “excellent” condition (cosmetically and functioning), and were always dust covered and pampered in my non-smoker household. Far less than normal usage of the rig has been made since its purchase. 95% listening, 5% short duration transmitting. No tinkering, alterations nor tube replacements have been made by me. Asking price for all three units is: $500 Shipping charges extra. Must be shipped in two separate packages. Carrier of your choice. Thank you.
