[drakelist] Hi Amplifier
Hi all, All of the conversation about L7 amps ( I thought it was an L75 btw) got me to thinking. Anyone out there have a piece of garbage (woops- basket case) Heathkit SB200 they would like to clean out of the basement, garage, shack or other place where it is just taking up space. Cabinet not necessary. Carl Hibbard WD8NHK Dayton, OH. Of course what the xyl of the house says is that she's tired of hearing me rant about wanting to erect a different antenna.. **Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.

RE: [drakelist] WTB: L-7 Amplifier
now THAT's a provocative statement! Would like to have a list of alternative sources for quality replacement transformers. 73 and happy holidays to all Drakesters, Peter W2CDO Peter Alterman, Ph.D. Asst.

Re: [drakelist] WTB: L-7 Amplifier
Jim DiMauro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> made an utterance to the drakelist gang -- Hi Mike: Thanx for the heads-up on Dahl. I've also heard that on another reflector. Could be true (I hope not) or the rumor mill is at it again. Regardless, it's comforting to know that Dahl or some other source of xfmrs is available, but on the other hand $595 for a L-7 xfmr would make me search for a parts unit, or build my own supply. Thanx also to Evan for the info on UPS survivability. That, more so than cost, was my motivation for trying to find a unit locally. 73, Jim Looking for last minute shopping deals?

Re: [drakelist] WTB: L-7 Amplifier
FYI... not sure if this is true or not but on the Ten Tec reflector, there's word that peter dahl is going out of business. They were making replacement transformers for the drake ac4 and the amplifier supplies mike Mike, WB8VGE SunLight Energy Systems The Heathkit Shop http://www.theheathkitshop.com/ J e e p o|||o Note: No trees were killed in the sending of this message, but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced On Dec 7, 2007, at 10:32 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jim, If packed properly an L-7 can survive even the shippers mistreatment.

The only responses I got were from scammers. It looks like there's nothing local so I'm now open to having an amp shipped. I want to buy a nice, fully operational L7 and power supply with no mods or "issues." My preference is for a plug-and-play amp that puts out full rated power, but I will consider an amp that needs minor repairs, if the price is right. Please contact me off-list.
