Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:1131982 | Model: HW-101 |
Brand: Heathkit | Type: Base Station |
Here's a dusty ole HW-101 transceiver from the basement of a Ham shack. Not sure how long it has been since it was powered up. There was a repair sticker from Heathkit dated 1989 loose inside the cabinet.
The unit powered right up and had good reception on 40M. I tuned around and listened on LSB and CW. CW and SSB Crystal filters installed. CW sounded like the filter was working properly. Tried to tune up but no RF output. Relays heard. The Mic/CW gain control is... locked up. I've included a replacement from an SB-102 with the purchase. Needs work.
No other tests.
